In Austrian traffic rules (StVO/KFG), what is the maximum speed permitted when approaching an Austrian railway level crossing (Eisenbahnkreuzung)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 50 km/h (or 30 km/h within 30 metres if not equipped with barriers or lights)
- Step 1: Under Section 29 StVO, drivers approaching an Eisenbahnkreuzung must travel at cautious speed (max 50 km/h, and max 30 km/h from 30 m before an unequipped crossing). Answer: 50 km/h (or 30 km/h within 30 metres if not equipped with barriers or lights). Why not the others: 80 km/h on country roads, 70 km/h under all circumstances and 20 km/h on all single tracks do not reflect statutory Austrian regulations.
