As you come near a railroad crossing, its red lights start to flash. There is no stop line on your side of the tracks. Which stopping point is lawful?
A approaches a railroad crossing from well back as a red warning lamp flashes. There is no painted stop line or selected stopping point.
Correct answer: About 25 feet from the nearest rail, well clear of a passing train
Why
Stop for a railroad crossing when the red lights flash, a gate comes down, a flagger signals, a stop sign is posted, or a train is close. After the train passes, look for a second train on another track before you cross. The train that you see is closer than it seems.
