abstract="There are a number of motorists who neither understand nor fully comprehend the meaning of traffic control devices at railroad-highway grade crossings. In certain situations, the percentage of motorists who misunderstand is small, but the severity of train-automobile collisions is such that only a small fraction of the driving public making improper decisions can lead to death and serious injury. It, therefore, becomes very important to have high performance traffic control devices at railroad-highway grade crossings and to educate the motorists on the proper driving behavior at these locations. Thus, the three Es of traffic engineering (engineering, education and enforcement) are even more important at railroad-highway grade crossings.<p />",
