In this situation, can you drive through the level crossing without stopping?

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

Yes, in this situation you can cross the level crossing without stopping, because the safety devices permit it. The raised barriers (gates) and the inactive light signals, visible in the recording, mean that entry onto the crossing is permitted and there is no obligation to stop the vehicle.
