Entrance in Palma: Car toppled on ramp – how safe are parking garages really?

Answer

What should older drivers in Mallorca watch out for when entering a parking garage?

Older drivers should take extra care when the entrance is tight, the markings are hard to read, or the ramp angle is difficult to judge. It helps to slow down early, avoid last-second steering corrections, and not rely too heavily on a navigation screen at the entrance. If visibility is poor, it is better to stop and reorient than to continue blindly.
