Are you exempt from the duty to exercise particular caution in the presented situation?
Description
Art. 28 para. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997, the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended), in conjunction with § 6 para. 1, § 3 para. 4, § 21 para. 4, § 78 para. 1 pt. 3 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and of Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended)
Explanation
Correct answer: No
No, a driver is never exempt from the obligation to exercise special care when approaching a railway crossing. Even if the crossing, as in this situation, is equipped with barriers and signals, this equipment can malfunction. The law (Art. 28 of the Road Traffic Act) unequivocally imposes this obligation regardless of the type of safety measures.
