Explanation
Crossing railroad tracks can be dangerous. Always make sure there is room for your vehicle on the other side of the tracks before proceeding. If you don't have enough room to cross the tracks completely, stop before you start crossing and wait until you have enough room. Do not block the crossing. Make sure your vehicle clears the tracks before you stop.
