Question 5485

On a two-way road, you approach this railroad crossing and the barriers are lowered or moving. Where must you stop?

  1. In the left lane, next to the red vehicle.
  2. In the left lane or the right lane; it does not matter.
  3. In the right lane, behind the red vehicle.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: In the right lane, behind the red vehicle.

When the barrier is down or moving, you wait in your lane behind the last vehicle until the crossing is open. On a two-way road, your lane is the right lane, so you stop behind the red passenger car waiting for the train to pass. The left lane is for oncoming traffic, which needs it clear when the crossing opens.
