Keys missing, vehicles idle: Why Mallorca's new ambulances aren't rolling

Answer

Why does the ambulance issue matter more during Mallorca’s high season?

During high season, Mallorca’s emergency services face more calls, more traffic and greater overall demand. Extra vehicles would be useful at exactly the time when the island is busiest, but that only helps if qualified drivers are available. The shortage therefore becomes more noticeable when the pressure on the system is highest.
