Question 4278

You must drive at a moderate speed and, if necessary, stop your vehicle when approaching a...

  1. traffic light.
  2. vehicle stationary in the roadway, whether inside or outside a built-up area.
  3. railroad crossing.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: railroad crossing.

As you approach a railroad crossing, you slow down and prepare to stop because a train may be coming. In the image, the barrier is down and the red lights are on, so you stop. The rule about a vehicle stopped on the roadway applies outside built-up areas, and at a traffic light you follow what the light indicates.
