Explanation
Drivers must always stop at a highway-railroad crossing within 50 feet, but no closer than 15 feet, from the nearest rail if the crossing gate is lowered, the signal is flashing, or a train is visible or audible. Do not proceed until the active warning has ended, and visually check all tracks for additional oncoming trains or railroad equipment before crossing.
