Warning, Construction & Information SignsStandalone practice
You pass a round yellow sign with a large black X and the letter R on each side. You cannot see any tracks yet. What does the sign tell you?

Correct answer: A railroad crossing is ahead, so slow down, look and listen
Why
The round shape is used only for the railroad advance warning sign, so you can know it even when snow covers the letters. Do not pass another vehicle as you come near a railroad crossing. Where a STOP sign stands at the crossing, you must stop before the tracks every time, even when no train is in view.
