Are you allowed to enter this level crossing directly after the passage of a train, regardless of the signal displayed?
Description
Art. 5 and 28 para. 2 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended), in conjunction with § 98 para. 5, § 21 para. 4, § 78 para. 1 pt. 3 and § 78 para. 5 pt. 2 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, entering the railway crossing is strictly forbidden as long as the signal is showing a flashing red light. Even if one train has already passed, the signal may still be active because another train could be approaching from the opposite direction. According to Art. 28 of the Road Traffic Act, you may only enter the crossing after the red light has completely gone out.
