Fatal Accident on the Paseo Marítimo: Trial Raises Questions About Safety and Control

Answer

When is it more dangerous to walk along the Paseo Marítimo in Mallorca?

The Paseo Marítimo can be calmer and safer in daylight, while late evening and night-time often bring more risk because of reduced visibility and faster traffic. Weekends and the hours after nearby bars and restaurants fill up can also be more challenging for pedestrians. Anyone crossing there should use designated crossings and avoid assuming drivers will react quickly.
