It takes a 100-car freight train going
55 mph a mile or more to stop. This

At crossings where there is a stop sign or a
signal on the other side of the tracks, how
does the driver determine if there is enough
room (containment or storage area)
for the bus?

A. Know the length of your bus. If you have any doubt, don’t
take a chance. If it won’t fit, don’t commit.
B. There’s always room following a crossing – the roads are
designed that way.
C. Get out of the bus and measure.
D. Make a careful guess.
Info
Home
Each driver needs to know the length of
their bus and the size of the storage or
containment area on the other side of the
crossing.
So, know the length of you bus and add an
extra 15 feet for safety!
Remember, the train will be 3 feet wider
than the rails on both sides.

What causes drivers to misjudge
whether it is safe to cross the
tracks?
A. The train’s warning horns cannot be heard.
B. Trains change speed unexpectedly.
C. They think the train can stop for them if needed.
D. An optical illusion fools the eye in judging the distance and
speed of the train.
Info
Home
Speed Perception
Trains appear to be traveling much slower than their actual
speed because of their size and mass; much like a jet
looks like they are almost hanging in mid air even though
their final approach speed is over 150 mph.

intersects with railroad tracks ahead. This
sign tells us to slow down and be prepared
to stop if a train is approaching.

DOT number and is used to notify the railroad of an
emergency or warning device malfunction. (Image credit:
