Railroad Grade Crossings; Stopping Required: Exception for Railroad Grade Crossing Equipped With Active Warning Device Not in Activated State
Published Date: 3/27/2026
Proposed Rule
Summary
The FMCSA is sharing new info about when trucks and buses must stop at railroad crossings. If the crossing has flashing lights or gates that aren’t active, drivers might not have to stop every time. This could save time and fuel for drivers, but the public has until April 27, 2026, to share their thoughts before any final rules are made.
