Wait until the crossing signals stop flashing before proceeding.
Do not attempt to drive around the lowered gate. Another train may be coming.
All of the above.
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.
