The driver of affected vehicles must stop 15 to 50 feet from the tracks, look both ways and listen.
Even with a “TRACKS OUT OF SERVICE” sign, buses and some other vehicles must stop just before railroad tracks to ensure there is no training coming — even if one hasn’t come by in years. That is state law. This file photo shows the tracks at Euclid Street, near Bastanchury Road, in Fullerton. Dear Honk: There is a defunct railroad line that has been shut down for many years. It runs parallel to Bastanchury Road in Fullerton.
“The law is ensuring that they are crossing the tracks in a safe manner,” the sergeant said in an email. “If a busload of people is hit by a train, the casualties could be devastating. The same can be said for hazardous materials that could cause an environmental disaster or potentially injure or kill someone close enough to the spill.”
