Bus Blind Spots and Pedestrian Safety in Mallorca
Buses have blind spots, so pedestrians in Mallorca should be especially careful at crossings and junctions.
Published: May 02, 2026

Answer
What should I know about bus blind spots in Mallorca?
Buses have larger blind spots than smaller vehicles, so pedestrians can be harder to see from the driver’s seat. In Mallorca, that matters most at crossings, junctions and narrow streets where people step out unexpectedly. Even when a crossing is marked, drivers and pedestrians both need to stay alert.
