Christmas at the Wheel: Why So Many on the Balearic Islands Keep Driving After Drinking

Answer

Are there enough night-time transport options in Mallorca during the festive season?

The main problem is that reliable late-night alternatives are still limited in many places, especially outside the main tourist areas. When buses are scarce and taxis are not easy to find, people are more likely to take their own car. That gap in mobility is one reason drink-driving remains a practical choice for some in Mallorca.
