Explanation
Multiple safety precautions are needed when crossing railroad tracks. Even after a train passes, another may be approaching from the opposite direction. Never drive around a lowered gate, and always wait until the signals stop flashing before proceeding. Ensure there is enough space on the other side before crossing to avoid getting stuck on the tracks.
