When approaching a railroad crossing, slow down and be alert for trains, as well as signals indicating you should stop, such as a red flashing light or a lowered gate. If you see any of these signals, stop between 15 and 50 feet from the tracks. If traffic is heavy and you're allowed to cross, ensure there is enough space on the other side of the tracks for your vehicle. Never stop on the tracks.
