Question 24 in the bank

Define level crossing:

  1. A place where a road and a railroad meet on a freeway.
  2. A place where a road and a railroad meet at different levels.
  3. Correct answer: A place where a road and a railroad meet or cross at the same level.
  4. Any place where a railroad can be crossed

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: A place where a road and a railroad meet or cross at the same level.

A level crossing is where a road and a railroad meet or cross at the same level, so road vehicles and trains can be at the same spot. That is why it calls for extra caution. A bridge or tunnel, where the road and the railroad are at different levels, is not a level crossing, because vehicles never share the track with trains there.
