Help make the roads safer for everyone

Every year, injuries and deaths are caused by crashes involving drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians. To help collisions, everyone should pay attention on the road and be respectful. AAA wants to give parents peace of mind with programs that help protect children whether they’re riding in the car, biking, or walking to school. Learn how you can help improve road safety.

Pathways to safety

AAA is dedicated to helping communities improve safety for everyone. Three of the biggest safety concerns in any community involve child passengers, bicycles, and pedestrians. These are the fundamentals for each and how best to implement them in your community.
