Warning signs

Railway crossing on side road

What it means

The side road ahead crosses a railway. If you turn onto it, be prepared to stop for a train.

Yellow diamonds (and five-sided yellow-green school signs) warn of hazards ahead.

Summarised from ICBC’s Learn to Drive Smart. Read the original: Signs signals and road markings ↗

How to recognise it

A yellow diamond with a black road and a side road branching off it, with a railway track crossing the side road.

Where you will see it

On a main road before an intersection where the side road crosses railway tracks close to the corner.

What to do when you see it

  1. 1.If you turn onto the side road, be prepared to stop soon after the turn.
  2. 2.Watch for vehicles ahead of you that slow or stop at the crossing after turning.

On the knowledge test

Find the track: it crosses the side road, not your road. If you are going straight, there is no crossing on your route.
