Sample question from test 4
signs
What does the round railroad warning sign tell you?
- A railroad crossing is ahead
- A traffic circle is beginning immediately
- Bicycles have priority in the next lane
- The road is closed to passenger vehicles
Answer: A railroad crossing is ahead. The round warning symbol is used for a railroad crossing ahead. It is an advance notice, so the driver has time to reduce speed, search for tracks and trains, and prepare to obey the crossing equipment. It is not a roundabout symbol, a bicycle-priority instruction, or a vehicle closure. The two railroad items may look similar, but this warning belongs before the crossing, while the actual crossing has its own controls and markings. Think round sign, railroad ahead, then make the approach with a deliberate scan and stopping margin.
