Which signal indicates a recovered vehicle?

• A. Abandoned Auto
• B. Recovered Auto
• C. Silent Alarm
• D. Audible Alarm

Answer: (B)

Understanding vehicle status signals: when a stolen vehicle is found, the signal used is a recovered auto. This tells all units and dispatch that the vehicle has been located and is no longer considered stolen. It updates the case, allows investigators to check for tampering or damage, and sets in motion returning the vehicle to its owner or arranging its tow as appropriate. The other signals refer to different situations: an abandoned auto indicates a vehicle left unattended and typically subject to towing under abandonment procedures; silent alarm means an alarm was triggered without a visible siren, while audible alarm indicates the alarm produced a loud sound.
