Passing target: 80% (24/30)
You are following a gasoline tank truck toward a railroad crossing. The crossing has no lights or gates, and no train is in sight. What should you expect the truck to do?
A follows a cylindrical gasoline tank truck B on a two-lane road toward a railroad crossing. A crossbuck stands beside the track. No warning lamps, gates or train are present.
Correct answer: Stop 15 to 50 feet from the tracks, so you should be ready to stop and not pass it.
Why
These vehicles stop so that the driver can look and listen for a train, because a crash with a bus or a fuel load would be a disaster. The stop can surprise drivers who follow too closely. Keep a long gap and stay behind the vehicle until it has crossed the tracks.
