Teen Membership

New drivers may not know how to handle bumps in the road like flat tires, dead batteries or empty gas tanks. But with AAA, teens—and parents—don’t have to worry. AAA offers an Associate Membership to young drivers with learner’s permits, so they’ll have AAA Roadside Assistance, whether they’re driving or riding in a friend’s car. They also can enjoy AAA Discounts at shops, restaurants and more—a great perk when they’re out and about.

AAA Mobile App

The AAA Mobile app can be used to find nearby gas stations, local attractions, and most importantly a way for your teen to request help with issues like dead batteries, flat tires or keys locked in the car.
