Which condition requires a Louisiana driver to stop at a railroad crossing?
- A lowered crossing gate
- A clear track with no warning device active
- A green traffic light on a nearby street
- A vehicle parked more than 100 feet away
Answer: A lowered crossing gate. A lowered crossing gate is one of the conditions that requires a stop at a Louisiana railroad crossing. The guide also identifies a flashing signal with an approaching train and several train-warning conditions. A clear track does not cancel an active gate, and a nearby green light or a distant parked vehicle does not determine whether the rail crossing is safe. Stop before the gate, remain stopped until it is raised, and never drive around it. The key cue is the crossing control itself: an active gate means stop and wait.
