Explanation
Sign P‑7: level crossing with barriers
- Meaning: Warns of danger due to the proximity of a railway level crossing with barriers or half-barriers.
- How to act:
- Reduce speed and be extra alert.
- Be prepared to stop if the barriers are down or if red lights and/or audible signals are activated.
- Do not cross if you cannot completely clear the crossing.
- Do not overtake or cross the stop line when the crossing is closed or closing.
- Why: The train has priority and needs a long distance to brake; the barriers and signals warn of imminent danger and order you to stop.
