Passing target: 80% (20/25)
Traffic is backed up on the far side of a railroad crossing, and the car ahead of you has just stopped right past the tracks. No train is in sight. When may you start across?
A approaches tracks while a line of traffic is stopped on the far side. B has stopped just beyond the crossing, leaving too little room for another car.
Correct answer: Only when there is room on the far side for your whole car to clear the tracks.
Why
Never start across railroad tracks unless there is enough room on the far side for your entire vehicle, because traffic ahead can stop and leave you stuck on the rails. Trains cannot stop quickly, and a train can come at any time on any track. Wait behind the crossing until the line ahead has moved far enough, and do not shift gears while you cross.
