@quinn you just need to live in a more rural place, they always do this at unsecured crossings :3c
happens constantly over here in Schleswig-Holstein

@darkphoenix @quinn if you go here on any route you will notice the honking frequency of 20 times per minute because of the abundance of W 6a and W 6b signs on all unsecured crossings, and also sometimes on secured crossings

@darkphoenix @quinn although on CMK there must be a different reason because any line with speeds over 160km/h legally cannot have crossings iirc

@darkphoenix @quinn (which is also why you don't really see them modernise lines to 200 km/h but to 160km/h because it's significantly cheaper)
