Final answer:

When approaching a railroad crossing with no warning signals, a driver should look, listen, and slow down.

Step-by-step explanation:

True.

When approaching a railroad crossing that has no warning signals such as electric flashing lights or gates, a driver should follow these steps:

  1. Look: Look both ways along the tracks to check for any approaching trains. Check for any obstructions on the tracks.
  2. Listen: Roll down the windows and listen carefully for any train horns or warning bells that may indicate an approaching train.
  3. Slow down: Reduce your speed and approach the railroad crossing with caution to allow for a safe stop if necessary.

By looking, listening, and slowing down, drivers can ensure they are aware of any approaching trains and can safely navigate the railroad crossing.
