What must you do if you approach a railroad crossing without any signals or gates, and a train is approaching?
When approaching a railroad crossing without signals or gates and a train is approaching, stopping at least 15 feet away from the tracks is required to ensure safety. This distance prevents drivers from getting too close to the path of an oncoming train, which cannot stop quickly or swerve. Stopping at a safe distance also provides adequate space to assess the situation and ensure it's clear before crossing.
