In Moldovan driving safety, what should a driver do if their car stalls on a railway crossing and cannot be restarted or pushed off before a train appears?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Evacuate passengers immediately and run along the track towards the oncoming train at a 45-degree angle
- Step 1: Run towards the oncoming train but away from the tracks; when the locomotive hits the car, wreckage is thrown forward in the train's direction of travel. Answer: Evacuate passengers immediately and run along the track towards the oncoming train at a 45-degree angle. Why not the others: Running with the train exposes rescuers to forward-flung shrapnel.
