Explanation
When approaching a railroad crossing, drivers should slow down and make sure all tracks are clear before crossing. If there is heavy traffic, drivers should ensure there is enough room on the other side of the track for their vehicle before crossing. If any warning signals are active or the sound of an approaching train is heard, drivers should stop and not proceed until the train has passed and the signals have turned off.
