Nighttime Escape on the Camí dels Reis: An Accident, Many Questions

Answer

Why do some drivers leave the scene after a late-night accident in Mallorca?

People sometimes panic, feel ashamed, or hope they can avoid consequences by leaving quickly. In Mallorca, late-night conditions can make this worse, especially around nightlife areas where people are tired, distracted, or under the influence. Leaving after a collision is still a serious offence and usually makes the legal situation worse.
