BDifficulty 2/5

At a level crossing, what should you do if the barrier is moving to rise?

Correct answer

Stop until the barrier is fully raised and allows you to pass.

Stop while the barrier is moving, even when it is rising. Cross only when the way is clear and signals permit it; also check you cannot become stranded on the tracks. A fully raised barrier does not override a light prohibiting passage. Do not cross because others do or because your vehicle fits beneath the barrier.
