Sixty buildings and 40,000 people.

That's what the Phoenix Fire Department says will be involved in what it's calling the "worlds' biggest fire drill."

The drills began at City Hall this morning will be spread throughout the city all day and through the evening. Sixty buildings have been randomly picked, including 18 downtown and midtown buildings. Some are high-rise structures.

The goal behind the drill is to test evacuation plans and coordinate everyone so they can get out of the buildings without incident.


edited to add: Chris said that had their building's drill at 10:00am and all it did was waste time.
