Place where the accident occurred María Parejo
The accident has occurred at kilometer 12.9 of the EI-600, the road to Sant Antoni in the direction of Ibiza. The blow has been very strong, as can be deduced from the state of the run over and the displacement of the body. At seven o’clock in the morning the Guardia Civil regulated the traffic, since at that time the body had not yet been lifted, which remained at the scene of the accident covered with a sheet. The body has been moved about half past seven.
The place of the hit-and-run is a black spot on the island’s roads. In this stretch, which has a lot of traffic, the speed limit is 80 kilometers per hour.
At the height of Can Guillamó there is a crosswalk marked with a traffic light and the speed limit of 50 kilometers per hour, which is usually exceeded on a regular basis and cars often do not stop. The neighbors have been denouncing the danger of this point for years and demanding measures. In addition, if the traffic light turns red for pedestrians at the crosswalk when they reach the median, they can no longer press the button to turn the signal back to green.
