In this situation, are you driving into a multi-track level crossing?

Show the correct answer

Correct answer

YES

Explanation

In the photo you can see a road approaching a level crossing over two tracks; at the right edge there is sign B-20 STOP, and just beyond it there is St Andrew's cross G-4 with double arms, and the stop line P-12 and the word STOP are painted on the roadway. In this situation you are entering a multi-track level crossing - the answer is YES.

St Andrew's cross comes in two versions: G-3 before a single-track level crossing and G-4 before a multi-track crossing. In the photo the cross has double arms - this is sign G-4, so the crossing goes over more than one track. This matters in practice: after one train has passed, another train may be coming on the other track, hidden by the first one. That is why, after stopping at the STOP sign, you look both ways and do not move off until you are sure that all the tracks are clear.

Legal basis: § 78 para. 5 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
