Are You Driving Intexticated? See our tips
AAA Traffic Safety programs play an important role in the communities we serve, protecting and saving lives of drivers, passengers, bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages.
Seniors
Age alone should not determine when someone stops driving, and AAA is committed to keeping seniors driving as long as safely possible.
Teens
AAA offers a variety of workshops, tools, information and other resources to help teens drive safely.
Child Passenger Safety
As a leader in child passenger safety, AAA has certified technicians on staff to inspect and show you how to properly install your car seat and to deliver safety presentations to schools.
AAA Northway’s New Safety System Implemented In All Service Trucks
Roads can be dangerous even with flashing lights, sirens, and other warning equipment, drivers frequently fail to slow down or move over for emergency responders and other road workers. AAA Northway has added new safety systems in all our fleet vehicles to warn drivers earlier. When our fleet vehicles are on-scene, Safety Cloud alerts drivers through in-dash systems and navigation apps. The alerts remind drivers to slow down and move over and are received up to 30 seconds before approaching a roadside incident.
