Parents who understand the risks recognize that it is important to keep teens from riding with other teens, even if it means playing 'chauffer' for one more year.
We don't lose a tremendous amount of members annually, but it's still a big number to replace every year.
When people think of AAA, the first thing that comes to mind is road service.
When people become part of the auto club, they get a better understanding of what we're about and what we can offer. It's our hope that if they become part of the auto club, they will look at our insurance products, and if they buy a policy for their vehicle, they also will consider a policy for their home.
I think people see us as more than a business. I feel people just have a good feeling of AAA as an organization.
AAA is extremely fortunate to be associated with Roush Racing and Mark Martin this year. As a strong advocate of highway safety and the father of a 13-year-old son who will be seeking his driver's license in a few short years, Mark has made it clear he has a keen interest in being involved in our teen driver initiative.
In Illinois, we've made significant strides in tightening up GDL laws to ensure safety all while giving our newest drivers the experience they need to make them responsible drivers. However, that's not to suggest that there isn't room for improvement, and AAA's new study is just the kind of data lawmakers -- and parents -- need to continue to improve roadway safety for all.
I think the hallmark of the organization is built around the membership. The members recognize that AAA has stood not only for running a business, but it's an organization that has advocated for traffic safety.
