Are you allowed to enter a level crossing whose barriers are moving to close across the road?

Correct answer

No, entry is prohibited while the barriers are moving.

No. Article 96.1 prohibits entry while barriers or half-barriers are closed or moving up or down, and while the signal requires stopping. A train having passed or a remaining gap is insufficient. Wait until opening is complete and signals permit passage, and check that you can cross without stopping on the rails.
