Question: 1 / 50

In most office towers and apartment buildings what would cause elevators to automatically go to the lobby?

An intrusion alarm

A fire alarm

In most office towers and apartment buildings, elevators will automatically descend to the lobby when a fire alarm is triggered. Some buildings have an emergency elevator feature that allows first responders to have priority access to the elevator in case of a fire, which is why this happens. Options A, C, and D may also trigger alarms or safety protocols in the event of a fire, but they would not necessarily cause the elevators to go to the lobby. For example, an intrusion alarm may be triggered if someone breaks into the building, but it would not impact the elevators. The same goes for option C, as smoke alone may not trigger the elevator's descent. Option D is also incorrect because a terrorist attack would not necessarily trigger the fire alarm and cause the elevators to go to the lobby. Ultimately, option B is the most logical choice as it directly addresses the question and provides the most likely

Smoke

A terrorist attack
