DAILY ROAD SAFETY TIPS

RAILWAY LEVEL CROSSINGS:

Do not cross a railway once the red lights have started to flash. You must come to a complete stop behind the white limit line immediately when the red lights start to flash at a railway level crossing. Flashing red lights indicate that a train is approaching, and attempting to cross can lead to fatal accidents.
