One train has cleared a crossing with more than one track. What should a driver do before crossing?
Two railroad tracks cross the road ahead after a train has passed. Each approach has a passive crossing assembly; the near faces show crossbuck, 2 TRACKS and YIELD. The question has no chosen crossing route.
Correct answer: Look for another train; cross only when every track is clear.
Why
At a multiple-track crossing, remain alert for another train after the first clears and do not cross until every track is clear and all crossing controls permit movement.
