Which code corresponds to Abandoned automobile?

• A. Abandoned automobile
• B. Vehicle Collision - Drunk Involved
• C. City Property
• D. Out of Service

Answer: (A)

In the 900 radio code system, each call type is represented by a descriptive phrase, and recognizing the exact label for a given situation is key. For an abandoned automobile, the code is the phrase Abandoned automobile, which directly matches the incident type you’re reporting or handling. That’s why this option is the best choice here—the code description aligns with the event you’re describing, signaling that a vehicle has been left unattended and may need to be towed or checked.

The other phrases point to different codes or statuses: Vehicle Collision - Drunk Involved describes a crash involving alcohol impairment; City Property refers to incidents involving city-owned property; Out of Service indicates a unit is unavailable for assignments. These do not describe an abandoned vehicle, so they’re not the correct code for this situation.
