AAA Insurance
From LoveToKnow Insurance
In 1902, nine different auto clubs joined to form the American Automobile Association, better known as AAA. Over the years, the club has evolved into AAA Insurance and is now one of the most recognized and respected insurance companies in the nation.
About AAA Insurance
When automobiles were first invented, many thought that the craze would never catch on, but these skeptics couldn't have been more wrong. Automobiles quickly gained in popularity and by 1902, more than 50 different auto clubs had formed. In March of 1902, nine of these clubs merged to form the American Automobile Association (AAA).
AAA was the voice of motorists and did quite a bit to improve driving conditions right from the beginning. Thanks to AAA's involvement in the highway movement of 1916, the federal government agreed to fund national highway construction. This led to better roads and safer driving conditions.
Over the years, AAA expanded to offer automobile insurance, roadside assistance, travel information, health and life insurance, financial services, and much more. The company currently has millions of members and continues to grow and prosper.
