These level crossing barriers have not moved for some time now. What is the right course of action?

In the scenario presented, where the level crossing barriers have not moved for some time, the correct actions are not only to refrain from crossing the level crossing but also to report the fault.

1. Not crossing the level crossing is essential for safety. If the barriers are down, it typically indicates that a train is approaching or there is a fault in the system that could pose danger.

2. Reporting the fault to the police is crucial as they can address the situation. It ensures that appropriate action is taken to check the level crossing's safety mechanisms and prevent potential accidents.

This aligns with German traffic regulations that prioritize safety at railway crossings and require drivers to take responsible actions when they encounter potential hazards.
