This means that in addition to any posted speed limits, drivers must consider weather conditions, visibility, the condition of the road surface, the type of roadway, and surrounding traffic when deciding how fast to travel. Motorists must decrease their speed when driving under unusual conditions.
9. When traveling on a freeway, drivers should always look ____ ahead of their vehicle.

You must always stop before crossing railroad tracks if flashing red lights are activated, a crossing gate is lowered, a stop sign is posted, a flagger signals you to stop, or a train is visible or so close to the crossing that it would be hazardous to continue driving. If you are unsure if a train is too close for you to safely cross the tracks, stop. Never race a train.
