Regulatory, Lane & Parking SignsStandalone practice
You are stopped at this sign while a long freight train goes by. The crossing has no lights or gates. The last car of the train has just passed you. What should you do before you cross?

Correct answer: Look and listen both ways again, and cross when no train is coming on any track.
Why
The crossbuck marks the crossing itself, and you must yield to trains even when there are no lights or gates. A train at 55 mph can need more than a mile to stop, so never guess. Where lights are used, wait until they stop flashing before you move.
