Show the correct answer

Correct answer

YES

Explanation

In the video you are driving along a suburban street among buildings, behind an orange car, and you pass on the right warning sign A-9 with a fence symbol on a yellow-green background, and next to it marker post G-1a with three diagonal stripes. You are approaching a level crossing with barriers - this is exactly what this sign tells you. The answer is: yes.

The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign A-9 "level crossing with barriers" warns of a level crossing equipped with barriers or half-barriers, and that marker posts G-1a, G-1b and G-1c with three, two and one stripe inform you that you are approaching the crossing: the first stands next to the warning sign, and the others at two thirds and one third of the distance from the sign to the tracks. The Road Traffic Act requires you, when approaching a level crossing, to exercise particular caution and make sure that no rail vehicle is approaching, and it prohibits driving onto the crossing when the barriers have started to come down or have not finished going up, and also when there is no room on the other side to continue driving. Barriers are not a guarantee - you slow down, look along the tracks and drive across when they are raised and the signal light is not flashing.

Legal basis: § 6 para. 1 and § 78 para. 1 and 2 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 28 para. 1 and para. 3 point 1 and 2 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
