Warning signs
Official statutory text
Whenever said barricading device shall be constructed or
installed and maintained and operated, the public authorities having
jurisdiction and control over the highway or street at such point
shall erect and maintain a reflector warning sign with appropriate
words thereon. If said barricading device is located at a railroad
crossing, said warning shall be installed and maintained not less
than four hundred (400) feet from the crossing, when said crossing
is located on highways or streets where vehicular traffic is
permitted to travel at speeds in excess of thirty (30) miles per
hour; and not less than two hundred (200) feet from the crossing,
when said crossing is located on highways or streets where vehicular
traffic is permitted to travel at speeds not in excess of thirty
(30) miles per hour. It shall be the duty of the driver of any
vehicle, on approaching such warning sign, to place his vehicle
under such control as to be able to bring such vehicle to a complete
stop at a distance of not less than seventy-five (75) feet in
advance of the crossing. The colliding of a vehicle with the
barricading device at a crossing shall be prima facie evidence that
the driver thereof did not comply with the provisions of this act,
and such driver shall be deemed a reckless driver, and be subjected
to the penalties provided for reckless driving under the motor
vehicle laws of this state, and shall be liable for any damage done
to such barricading device on account of such collision.
