Driver education
Resources for all motorists
Safe driving should be a priority for anyone behind the wheel. At AAA, we want our members to enjoy the open road, no matter where they’re headed. That’s why we offer a variety of programs to help improve the roads for all drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.
Educational resources for drivers
AAA's Digest of Motor Laws summarizes laws and regulations governing the registration and operation of passenger vehicles in all 50 United States, the District of Columbia, U.S. possessions, and Canadian provinces.
AAA is working to reduce distracted driving by supporting laws that deter distracted driving, conducting research to assist law enforcement, and promoting campaigns that emphasize the dangers of distracted driving.
With thousands of DUI-related deaths and injuries each year, AAA invests in efforts such as using ignition interlock devices, publicizing laws against drunk driving, and supporting strategies to reduce drugged driving.
AAA encourages motorists to make their voices heard. To participate in the legislative process, you can track bills moving through session. You can also contact legislators through the Constituent Viewpoint Opinion Line.
