2. Ignore the warning signs if you are in a rush

4. Speed up to clear the railroad crossing quickly

The correct answer is: Obey the warning signs, never drive around a crossing gate, avoid stopping on the railroad tracks, and watch for additional trains

Railroad crossings can be dangerous and drivers must follow certain safety guidelines to prevent accidents. Some of these safety guidelines include obeying warning signs, never driving around a crossing gate, and avoiding stopping on the railroad tracks. This is why option C is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because it is never safe to drive around a crossing gate, regardless of whether or not a train is visible. Doing so can lead to a collision with a train or other vehicles on the other side of the tracks. Option B is also incorrect because ignoring warning signs can also lead to accidents at railroad crossings. Rushing through a crossing can result in a driver not being able to react in time if a train is approaching. Option D is incorrect because it is never safe to speed up to clear a railroad crossing. This can result in a driver losing control of their vehicle or colliding with other vehicles. It is important to approach and cross railroad crossings at a safe and appropriate speed.
