You see this sign, a round yellow sign with a black X and the letters R R, beside a country road. What does it tell you?
Correct answer: A railroad crossing is ahead, so slow down, look and listen, and be ready to stop.
Why
White RR markings on the pavement often go with this sign. At the crossing itself, a white crossbuck marks the tracks, and flashing red lights, bells or gates tell you that a train is coming. Trains cannot stop quickly and may be closer and faster than they look, so never try to beat one across.
