Official cars on Mallorca: When official vehicles resemble private cars

Answer

Can official cars in Mallorca be used like private cars?

Official cars in Mallorca are meant for public duties, not for ordinary private use. Taking them home overnight can be allowed in exceptional cases, but using them regularly as if they were personal vehicles goes against that purpose. Whether a specific case is improper depends on the rules, the documentation, and the supervision in place.
