Victoria · Learner Permit Test · Road rules

When may you enter a railway level crossing?

The answer

  • When the lights have just started flashing
  • Only when the lights aren't flashing, gates are fully open, and there's room on the other side Correct
  • Whenever no train is visible
  • When the car ahead goes

Why that's the answer

Enter a level crossing only when signals aren't operating, gates are fully raised, and there is space for your whole vehicle on the far side — never queue across the tracks.
