This Vehicle Stops at All Railroad Crossings Decal

This vehicle stops at all railroad crossings is a two-line decal that tells drivers behind you what to expect at the tracks. The sample prints THIS VEHICLE STOPS on the first line and AT ALL RAILROAD CROSSINGS on the second, in white lettering on a red sticker. You can type other words in its place. We print exactly what you type. At 12 inches the decal is $22.99 each, and a Set of 2 gives you two identical decals for $45.98.

Bus companies, tank truck carriers and haulers of placarded loads are the usual buyers. A fleet owner may want the same notice on every unit, and a small hauler may want it on one cab. Put it on the rear doors, a tailgate or a flat panel where a driver in the next lane can read it. Measure the clean area first. Width is 12, 18 or 24 inches, at $22.99, $28.99 and $36.99 each. Red with white lettering is easy to read, and black on yellow also works on most paint.

Here is what we found in the federal text. 49 CFR 392.10 says the driver of certain commercial vehicles must stop within 50 feet of a railroad crossing, and not closer than 15 feet, then listen, look both ways and cross without shifting gears. It covers every bus carrying passengers, cargo tanks used for hazardous materials, vehicles that must be placarded for listed hazmat classes and some others. Paragraph (b) lists crossings where no stop is needed. The rule asks the driver to stop. We found no federal rule that asks for a decal.

So this decal is a notice to the people behind you, and a choice you make for your fleet. It does not stop the vehicle, and it does not replace the driver's duty or your own training. Check FMCSA or your state agency for the current text and for what applies to your vehicles. The vinyl is removable car wrap material with a gloss UV-protective laminate, and you install it yourself with the sheet and the install page. For more notices, see the truck safety decals page.
