You’ve stopped at a railway level crossing. What should you do if the red lights continue to flash after a train has gone by?

Explanation: You must always obey red flashing stop lights. If a train passes but the lights continue to flash, another train will be passing soon. Cross only when the lights go off and the barriers open.
