The same rules apply to trolley and light rail crossings that apply to train crossings.

In general, trolley and light rail crossings are subject to many of the same rules and regulations that govern train crossings. This is due primarily to safety concerns, as both types of transit vehicles can pose similar hazards to pedestrians and vehicles at grade crossings. Here are some key points to consider:

1. Traffic Signals and Signs: Just like train crossings, trolley and light rail crossings are often marked with signals, signage, and sometimes gates to warn drivers and pedestrians of an approaching vehicle.

2. Right-of-Way Rules: Typically, trolleys and light rail vehicles have the right-of-way over other traffic. This means that vehicles and pedestrians must yield to approaching light rail or trolley cars when crossing tracks.

3. Safety Precautions: At crossings, pedestrians are generally required to use designated walkways, and vehicles may need to stop when lights are flashing or gates are down.

4. Training and Public Awareness: Many transit agencies conduct public awareness campaigns to educate the public about safe practices around trolley and light rail crossings, similar to those for train crossings.

5. Legal Penalties: Violating crossing rules, such as ignoring signals or attempting to beat a crossing vehicle, can lead to fines or legal consequences that are similar to those associated with train crossing violations.

These shared regulations aim to enhance safety and prevent accidents at crossings, as both trolley/light rail and train systems operate a heavy and fast-moving means of transportation that can be dangerous if proper precautions are not followed.
