Nighttime accident on the Paseo Marítimo: alcohol, a tripping hazard and many questions

Answer

Is the Paseo Marítimo in Palma safe to cross at night?

The Paseo Marítimo can be risky at night because traffic, poor lighting and road furniture can make crossings harder to see. When people have been drinking, the danger increases, especially near busy nightlife areas in Palma. It is better to use marked crossings and avoid crossing between lanes or medians in the dark.
