Home › DMV Practice Tests › New York › Motorcycle Permit Questions › Question 38
A black-and-white crossbuck sign marked with an X and the words for a railroad crossing, often with flashing lights, means:
- A.A scenic overlook is ahead
- B.You may cross the tracks at full speed
- C.A rest area is nearby
- D.A railroad crossing is ahead — slow down, look both ways, and be prepared to stop
Correct answer
D. A railroad crossing is ahead — slow down, look both ways, and be prepared to stop
Why
The crossbuck identifies a railroad crossing, and flashing lights or gates mean a train is approaching. Look both ways, never stop on the tracks, and never go around lowered gates.
