Are you warned in this situation of a level crossing fitted with full barriers or half-barriers?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo, you are driving on a road outside a built-up area; on the right there is sign A-9 "level crossing with barriers" with a fence symbol, and under it countdown marker post G-1a with three red bars; further on you can see sign B-33 "70". You are warned that you are approaching a level crossing equipped with barriers or half-barriers. The answer is: yes.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign A-9 warns of a level crossing equipped with barriers or half-barriers, and sign A-10 with a locomotive symbol warns of a level crossing without barriers. Countdown marker posts with three, two and one bar count down the distance to the level crossing. Barriers do not free you from caution: you slow down, watch the traffic lights and the barriers, and do not drive onto the level crossing when they start to come down.
Legal basis: § 6 para. 1 and 2 and § 78 para. 1 and 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
