Passing target: 80% (52/65)
You must stop and wait for a friend on a street that crosses railroad tracks. What is the closest that you may stop your car to the nearest rail of the crossing?
A approaches railroad tracks on a two-way street. The near rail and a crossbuck on the right before the tracks are visible; no parking point is selected.
Correct answer: 25 feet from the nearest rail
Why
A car that stops near a crossing can block other drivers' view of the tracks. It can also block the way of a driver who must clear the tracks quickly. The 25-foot rule applies to every stop, also a short wait with the driver in the car. The handbook adds: never stop on the tracks, and do not start across unless there is room for your car on the other side.
