Question 208 in the bank

Within which distance before and after a railway crossing is it allowed to stand or park a vehicle?

A road with a railway crossing. The red-and-white barrier arms are raised, and cross-shaped signs with red lights stand by the track. A turquoise truck approaches, a white car is at the side of the road, and hills are in the background.
  1. At least six meters from the crossing.
  2. Correct answer: At least twenty meters from the crossing.
  3. At least four meters from the crossing.
  4. At least twelve meters from the crossing.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: At least twenty meters from the crossing.

You may stand or park a vehicle before and after a railway crossing at a distance of at least 20 meters from it. Anything closer is forbidden, so the shorter distances in the other answers, four, six and 12 meters, are wrong. This is the distance set for parking and standing near a railway.
