Green tab below is for correct answer Info Home
Each driver needs to know the length of their bus and the size of the storage or containment area on the other side of the crossing. So, know the length of you bus and add an extra 15 feet for safety! Remember, the train will be 3 feet wider than the rails on both sides. Back Home
Start Timer B. Trains change speed unexpectedly. A. The train’s warning horns cannot be heard. D. An optical illusion fools the eye in judging the distance and speed of the train. C.

Green tab below is for correct answer Info Home
Speed Perception Trains appear to be traveling much slower than their actual speed because of their size and mass; much like a jet looks like they are almost hanging in mid air even though their final approach speed is over 150 mph. Back Home
Start Timer A. Stop at this sign. D. No trains cross here. B. Slow down and prepare to stop at a railroad crossing. C. Look and listen for trains.

When there is more than one set of tracks, another train could be approaching from either direction, hidden by the first train. At a multiple track crossing waiting for a train to pass, watch out for a second train on the other tracks, approaching from either direction. Back Home
