A light signal with no level crossing sign is positioned before a level crossing, and in front of a junction with a road to the right. The red light is illuminated. Where must you wait?

When a red light is shown at a railroad crossing without a level crossing sign, you must stop before crossing the tracks.

The rules are:
- If there is a stop line marked on the road, you must wait exactly at that stop line.
- If no stop line is present, you must stop in front of the light signal itself, ensuring you do not enter the crossing or junction.

This is important to prevent vehicles from blocking the crossing or the road junction ahead, which can be dangerous especially if a train is approaching. You are not allowed to cautiously drive up to or onto the crossing when the light is red. Waiting at the correct stopping point ensures safety for all road users and is legally required under German traffic regulations.
