Warning, Construction & Information SignsStandalone practice
You see this sign at a place where a road crosses train tracks. There are no lights or gates. What does this sign tell you?

Correct answer: The tracks cross here, and you must yield to any train that comes.
Why
Many crossings have only this sign, with no lights or gates, so you must look and listen yourself. If a train is coming, stop at least 15 feet but not more than 50 feet from the nearest rail. Where a sign below it shows the number of tracks, check every track before you cross.
