There are more than 23,000 railway level crossings in Australia, of which about 79% are passive crossings (with a stop or give way sign).
On average there are almost 1,000 near misses, 33 collisions and 3 fatalities recorded each year.
The Regional Railway Crossing Safety Campaign aims to raise awareness of safe driving behaviours around regional railway crossings.
Given more rail and road infrastructure is developed to meet the needs of communities, it is essential that safety around regional railway crossings is front of mind for all drivers and riders.
So, slow down. Look. Listen for trains.

We thank @AurizonAu for producing this powerful and very important video. We support all operators in promoting safety at level crossings for all road users, no matter what they drive or ride. Please share this video. But most importantly, respect the sign - lives are on the line!
