Western Australia · Theory Test (CTT) · Road rules

How close to a railway crossing may you park?

The answer

  • Not within 20 metres of the nearest rail, before or after Correct
  • Not within 5 metres of the nearest rail
  • Not within 50 metres of the nearest rail
  • Anywhere outside the boom gates

Why that's the answer

You must not stop or park within 20 metres of the nearest rail on either side of a crossing, unless parking control signs allow it. A parked car near a crossing blocks the view of the line.
