Environmental ResponsibilityDifficulty: 1/5

You are approaching a railway level crossing without traffic lights and see the barrier starting to lower. How can you respond in a way that is both safe and environmentally responsible?

Explanation

The Highway Code (Rule 295) states that you must stop and wait at a level crossing barrier or gate when it begins to close and must not cross until it has fully opened. For environmental responsibility, if you expect to be waiting for some time, switching off your engine will reduce unnecessary idling, fuel use and emissions, provided it is safe to do so.
