What does ATC ICON indicate about badge access?

• A. Purple background with white airplane - Badge holders have contact with ATC Tower and access to Special Security Areas including the aircraft movement areas and any areas designated under the AOA Familiarization Icon.
• B. Green background with white car - Restricted Area Driver Icon.
• C. Orange diamond - AOAFAM icon.
• D. Black background with red airplane - ASM Icon.

Answer: (B)

The ATC ICON on a badge communicates what driving or access privileges you have in the airport’s restricted areas. A green background with a white car is the Restricted Area Driver Icon, which means you’re authorized to operate a vehicle in restricted areas under the proper procedures. It signals security and operations staff that driving permissions are granted in those zones, but it doesn’t automatically grant access to the aircraft movement areas or require ATC tower contact—those are indicated by other icons. Other icon colors and symbols correspond to different access rights, such as tower contact or AOAFAM, which are separate from the driving privilege.
