In the presented situation, are you allowed to drive through the railway crossing without stopping?
Description
§ 21 para. 4 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
The B-20 'STOP' sign visible in the picture obliges you to come to a complete stop before the railway crossing. The obligation to stop always exists, regardless of whether the driver has confirmed that no train is approaching. Only after stopping and re-confirming that there is no danger can you continue driving. In accordance with Art. 28 para. 2 of the Road Traffic Act, in conjunction with the B-20 sign, you must stop at the designated place or in a place from which there is a good view of the tracks.
