Crossbuck Sign
This sign is often found at a railroad crossing.
What it means
Crossbuck signs indicate that there is a railroad crossing. Drivers should treat these signs like yield signs. If a train is approaching, drivers should stop and wait for it to pass instead of speeding up to drive across the railroad. A train always has the right of way because it's difficult for them to swerve or stop quickly when there is a chance of collision.
Heads Up
- Drivers should treat a crossbuck sign like a yield sign.
- Drivers should slow down and watch out for trains at passive railroad crossings.
- A train always has the right of way because it's difficult for them to swerve or stop quickly when there is a chance of collision.
