Passing target: 80% (32/40)
You follow a school bus with children on board toward a railroad crossing. No lights are flashing and no train is in sight. What should you expect?
A follows school bus B carrying children toward railroad tracks. Both crossing lamps are dark and no train is visible. The bus has not entered the tracks.
Correct answer: The bus will stop before the tracks, so keep extra space and be ready to stop behind it.
Why
These vehicles stop 15 to 50 feet from the nearest rail, look and listen, and then cross without shifting gears. A driver who expects them to roll through can rear-end them. The manual lists them among the vehicles to follow at a longer distance.
