(B) NOTICE OF INTENDED CROSSING.
BEFORE ANY PERSON DRIVES OR MOVES ANY EQUIPMENT
DESCRIBED IN SUBSECTION (A) OF THIS SECTION ON OR ACROSS
ANY RAILROAD GRADE CROSSING, THE PERSON SHALL:
(1) NOTIFY AN AGENT OF THE RAILROAD OF HIS
INTENTION; AND
(2) AFFORD THE RAILROAD REASONABLE TIME TO
PROVIDE PROPER PROTECTION AT THE CROSSING.
(C) DUTY TO STOP, LOOK, AND LISTEN.
WHEN THE PERSON APPROACHES THE CROSSING, HE:
(1) SHALL STOP WITHIN 50 FEET BUT NOT LESS
THAN 15 FEET FROM THE NEAREST RAIL IN THE CROSSING;
(2) WHILE STOPPED, SHALL LISTEN AND LOOK IN
BOTH DIRECTIONS ALONG THE TRACK FOR ANY APPROACHING OR
PASSING RAILROAD TRAIN AND FOR ANY SIGNALS INDICATING THE
APPROACH OR PASSAGE OF A RAILROAD TRAIN; AND
(3) MAY NOT PROCEED UNTIL HE CAN DO SO
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(D) OBEDIENCE TO SIGNALS.
(1) THE PERSON MAY NOT PROCEED IF A WARNING
IS GIVEN BY AN AUTOMATIC SIGNAL, CROSSING GATE,
FLAGMAN, OR OTHERWISE OF THE IMMEDIATE APPROACH OR
PASSAGE OF A RAILROAD TRAIN.
(2) IF THE RAILROAD PROVIDES A FLAGMAN, THE
PERSON MAY PROCEED OVER THE CROSSING ONLY AT THE
DIRECTION OF THE FLAGMAN.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §11-704.
Subsection (a) of this section is revised to
clarify that the conditions described in items
(1) and (2) of that subsection apply to all of
the vehicles and equipment listed, not merely
to the reference to "other equipment or
structure".
In subsection (d) of this section, the present
reference to a railroad "car" is deleted as
unnecessary in light of the definition of
"railroad- train" in §21-101(m) of this title.
The only other changes are in style.
21-705. EMERGING FROM AND ENTERING ALLEY, DRIVEWAY, OR
BUILDING.
