How do I safely cross train tracks in my car?

The safest way to cross train tracks is make sure there's not a line of traffic in front of you that are attempting to do the same thing. This is because you could get stuck behind other vehicles and you could actually get stuck on the tracks, and that's not a great place to be. Also, don't attempt to shift gears while you're on the tracks because in certain vehicles that could cause you to stall out. So, be very careful when crossing the track and make sure you have room to do that before a train comes.
