A train is approaching a crossing and the gate has started down. What should a driver do?
A blue car approaches a single-track railroad crossing. Red warning lights are active and the gate is closing or down across its inbound lane. The near control has a US RAILROAD CROSSING crossbuck; the other approach has its own gate.
Correct answer: Stop and wait; never go around the gate before it lifts.
Why
Stop and wait while the train or crossing controls require it. Never drive around a crossing gate that is closed, opening or closing. Trains cannot swerve and need a long distance to stop; do not try to beat one. After the warning clears, check every track and the space beyond before crossing.
