Two crashes on the Ma-13 minutes apart: Why this stretch feels dangerous again

Answer

Why do accidents happen so often on the Ma-13 in Mallorca?

The Ma-13 combines long straight sections with heavy traffic, which can encourage higher speeds and leave little margin when something suddenly slows down. If one driver brakes sharply or a vehicle breaks down, following cars may have too little time to react, especially during busy commuter periods toward Palma.
