California Driver License (DMV) Written Practice Test

What is the proper way to proceed when approaching a railroad crossing if you have an obstructed view?

Bring your vehicle to a complete stop Increase your speed to go across the crossing quickly Turn around and take an alternate route Do not enter the crossing if you cannot see clearly both ways

Correct Answer:

Turn around and take an alternate route

Explanation:

When approaching a railroad crossing with an obstructed view, the proper way to proceed is to turn around and take an alternate route. This is because it is dangerous to enter the crossing if you cannot see clearly both ways. Bringing your vehicle to a complete stop or increasing your speed would not be safe options as you may not be able to see an approaching train. Simply going across the crossing quickly could also lead to a potentially dangerous situation. It is always best to err on the side of caution and take an alternative route if your view of the crossing is obstructed.
