Explanation
When approaching a railroad crossing that has no warning devices, drivers should slow down, look in both directions and listen for any oncoming trains or railroad equipment. This provides drivers with the necessary time to assess the situation and react promptly if a train is approaching. If safe to do so, drivers may proceed with caution across the railroad crossing.
