1. This white sign means:

The railroad crossing is controlled. Continue at your regular speed.

Look, listen, and prepare to stop at the crossing if necessary.

Stop at the railroad tracks and wait for a signal before crossing.

When approaching a railroad crossing, you must look, listen, slow down, and prepare to stop. Let any trains pass before you proceed.

Slow down or stop.

Stop if necessary.

You must come to a complete stop.

An octagonal sign always means stop. When approaching a stop sign, you must come to a complete stop at the marked stop line and proceed only when it is safe to do so. If there is no stop line, stop before the crosswalk. If there is no crosswalk, stop before the intersection at a point from which you can see oncoming traffic.

3. When may you legally drive around or under a railroad crossing gate?

Never.

When you can see clearly in both directions.

When the warning lights are not flashing.

Do not go around or under any lowered gate at a railroad crossing. Once the gate is raised, do not proceed across the tracks until you can see clearly in both directions and are sure there are no trains coming.

Dangerous intersections.

Slow-moving vehicles.

Yield signs.

A reflective orange triangle on the rear of a vehicle means it travels only at slow speeds. You may see this sign on roadwork equipment, farm vehicles, or horse-drawn wagons and carriages. It appears as a solid orange triangle during the day and a hollow red triangle at night.

5. Before switching on the ignition, you should:

Buckle your safety belt.

Be sure all passengers have buckled their safety belts.

Both of the above.

Develop a routine for entering and leaving your car. Before switching on the ignition, buckle your safety belt and see that all passengers do likewise.

6. When should drivers yield the right-of-way to pedestrians in a crosswalk?

Only if the pedestrians first wave to the driver.

Only if the pedestrians are not texting while walking.

At all times.

Bring your vehicle to a complete stop at a crosswalk to yield the right-of-way to any vehicle or pedestrian already in the intersection. You may carefully proceed if your lane is completely clear.

Pedestrian crossing.

Side road.

Railroad ahead.

This sign indicates that there is a pedestrian crosswalk.

8. Regulatory signs are:

Green.

Yellow.

Regulatory signs inform drivers of specific laws that must be obeyed. Displayed laws may be about traffic direction, lane use, turning, speed, parking, or special situations. Regulatory signs are commonly white squares or rectangles with black, red, or green letters or symbols.
