What is the minimum distance a vehicle must stop from a railway crossing?

10 ft
15 ft
25 ft
50 ft

The correct answer is: 15 ft

The minimum distance a vehicle must stop from a railway crossing is 15 feet. This rule is in place to ensure the safety of drivers and passengers, as well as the safety of train operators and passengers. Stopping at this distance allows for an adequate line of sight to see any approaching trains, and it provides enough space to prevent a vehicle from being in the path of an oncoming train. This distance also helps reduce the risk of accidents at crossings, where the potential for severe injuries or fatalities is significantly heightened. Recognizing and adhering to this measure ensures both compliance with traffic laws and the safety of everyone on the road and railways.
