In this situation, are you obliged to stop the vehicle before the level crossing?

Explanation

Correct answer: No

In this situation, there is no obligation to stop the vehicle, because the barriers at the railway crossing are fully raised. The light signals are also not displaying a signal prohibiting entry, which, combined with the open barriers, allows you to proceed without stopping, while exercising special caution.
