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

Answer

Can uninsured cars still end up on the roads in Mallorca?

Yes, although they should not be there, uninsured vehicles can still circulate if controls are missed or if the car is being used in a way that is hard to trace. That is one reason police checks, registration controls and number plate monitoring are discussed in Mallorca. When an uninsured car is involved in a crash, the consequences for victims and authorities can be much more complicated.
