Passing target: 80% (32/40)
You follow a school bus with no children on board. It slows and moves toward the right as it nears a railroad crossing, but the crossing lights do not flash. What should you expect and do?
A follows an empty school bus B that has moved toward the right near railroad tracks. The crossing warning lamps are dark.
Correct answer: Slow down and keep back, because a school bus stops at every railroad crossing.
Why
Tennessee also requires vehicles that carry passengers for hire and vehicles with flammable, explosive or other dangerous cargo to stop at every crossing. Buses usually move to the right, and tanker trucks often turn on their flashers before they stop. Keep a safe gap behind these vehicles so that you can stop without a crash.
