Your car stalls on a level crossing. What is the first action?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Get everyone out and well clear of the track, then call for help from a safe place
- Step 1: A train cannot stop quickly. Step 2. Leave the vehicle and move well away from the crossing. Answer: Get everyone out and well clear of the track, then call for help from a safe place. Why not the others: Try to restart the engine repeatedly: a train may arrive before the engine starts. Stay in the car and wait for help: you remain in the path of the train. Push the car clear while everyone stands on the track beside it: pushing keeps you on the track in the path of the train.
