What should you do after driving a vehicle into a railway crossing?
1 Answers
After entering the crossing, maintain a low speed (2nd to 3rd gear) and avoid shifting gears. Below are the specific requirements after entering a railway crossing: 1. Manned or unmanned: Railway crossings are divided into manned and unmanned types. When approaching a manned crossing, follow the instructions of the railway crossing personnel and pass in order. When approaching an unmanned railway crossing, first reduce the vehicle's speed and observe whether there are traffic signals ahead. If there are signals, pass according to them. For railway crossings without signals, always adhere to the principle of 'look first, slow down second, and pass third.' 2. Precautions: Regardless of whether the crossing is manned or unmanned, or whether there are signals, always reduce speed in advance when driving a motor vehicle into a railway crossing, keeping the vehicle below the 30 km/h limit stipulated by traffic safety laws. If driving a manual transmission vehicle, shift into a low gear when entering the crossing, steady the throttle to prevent stalling, and keep both hands firmly on the steering wheel to prevent the vehicle from skidding when crossing the railway tracks. Ensure the vehicle passes at a steady speed. For vehicles without gears, steady the throttle and keep both hands firmly on the steering wheel to pass at a steady speed.
