If passengers should have to evacuate, lights leading to the emergency doors will be illuminated.
According to dictionaris, 'illuminate' means ' to make a place bright with light, or to shine a light on something.'
I think that an object of 'illuminate' should be the recepients, or subjects. That is, light out of the 'lights' illuminates something.
In a passive voice structure, how come lights are placed in the subject position?
