Explanation

If upon approaching a level crossing with a current railway without barriers the red lights and the sound signals are in operation, you must reduce speed and stop in the place with maximum visibility over the railway but without passing the sign or the stopping marking. Wait for the train to pass and continue your movement only after the red colour signals and the sound ones have stopped, and the signal with intermittent white light with slow cadence is in operation.

The correct answer is: B
