Keep going and clear the crossingThis was the right answer
Keep going; don’t stop on the crossing. If the warning sounds and the amber lights come on as you’re approaching the crossing, you must stop unless it's unsafe to do so. Red flashing lights together with the audible warning mean you must stop.
