Cevap

Overtaking and passing another vehicle traveling in the same direction is legally prohibited within 100 feet of a railroad crossing zone.
Traffic safety regulations specifically prohibit passing or driving on the left side of the roadway within 100 feet of any railroad grade crossing. This rule prevents head-on collisions and obstruction of vision where vehicles may need to stop suddenly for rail traffic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the special zone sign and marking
The yellow circular sign with a black 'X' and 'RR' is the Railroad Advance Warning sign, indicating an upcoming railroad grade crossing.
Recognizing special zone signage establishes the specific legal rules and driving restrictions that apply to that section of roadway.
2
Apply traffic laws governing passing rules near special crossing zones
Under standard DMV rules of the road, drivers must not cross center pavement markings to pass another vehicle within 100 feet of a bridge, tunnel, intersection, or railroad grade crossing.
Limited visibility and the sudden presence of oncoming trains or stopped traffic make passing extremely hazardous near railroad tracks.
