Four speed cameras in 500 meters: safety or rip-off on the Paseo Marítimo?

Answer

Why do some people in Mallorca object to so many fixed cameras in one place?

The main concern is that too many fixed cameras in a short stretch can feel more like enforcement for its own sake than a balanced safety strategy. Some residents want clearer accident data, regular reporting, and possibly temporary checks instead of permanent devices everywhere. The question is not whether safety matters, but whether the current setup is the fairest way to achieve it.
