When you exercise caution, are you allowed to enter a railway crossing if the barrier has just started to lower?

Explanation

Correct answer: No

No. Under Art. 28 para. 2 pt. 3 of the Road Traffic Act, a driver must stop when the lowering of barriers or half-barriers has started, or when they are down. The start of the lowering means a train is approaching the crossing. Entering the tracks is prohibited without exception, however much extra care you take.
