In 1902, nine regional automobile clubs joined together to create a national motoring organization called the American Automobile Association (AAA). The earliest goal of AAA was to lobby for road improvements. Since then, AAA has devoted itself to all matters that concern American motorists--including driver safety, emergency services, and ensuring the best possible experiences for automobile travelers.
