If you follow one of these “Must Stop Vehicles,” prepare to stop, since you cannot pass or overtake them at an intersection.

20. T – 1.19  Trains cannot stop quickly.  A car moving at 55 mph takes 200 feet to stop.  A train moving at 50 mph takes 1.5 miles to stop.  Trains are not always on schedule.  Since many crossings have 2 or more tracks, a first train can hide a second one.  It is hard to say how fast a train is moving.  There are still crossings that have no warning lights or gates.  It is illegal and dangerous to drive around lowered gates.

If you get stuck on the tracks: Get everyone out—Run from the tracks. Call the police. If no train is coming, try to push the vehicle. Railroad Crossing Safety
