Question: 1 / 400

During the X-Ray test, what might you decide if you select 'alarm'?

The bag should proceed without inspection

The bag requires police intervention due to a prohibited item

Selecting 'alarm' during the X-Ray test indicates that there is a potential security concern, usually due to the detection of a prohibited item. When an alarm is triggered, it typically means that something potentially dangerous, suspicious, or not allowed has been identified within the scanned bag. Thus, the decision to involve police intervention is a precautionary measure to ensure safety and security, allowing for proper handling of any prohibited items.

To provide context on the other options: allowing the bag to proceed without inspection or determining that it contains only allowed items would be inappropriate responses given that an alarm has been triggered. Similarly, concluding that the item is safe but requires further inspection would not be fitting since an alarm suggests a more serious concern rather than just a need for additional inspection.
