Can I use my AAA for someone else?

My friend was driving me to dinner when her tire blew out. Can I use my AAA to get her towed to a tire shop, or is that against the rules?

It’s so stressful when you’re
stranded on the side of the road
and don’t know what to do. Thankfully, your AAA membership is applied to your person, not your vehicle—so you’re covered even if you’re not driving your car. All you’ll need is your photo ID and your AAA membership card.
You can use your AAA to help you even when you’re not in your car when:
  • You’re locked out of a vehicle
  • The vehicle you’re traveling in needs a tow
  • You get a flat tire
  • You run out of gas
If you’re not sure what to do next, then
Jerry
is here to help. Once your friend’s car is on the tow truck, have them download the Jerry app and enter some basic information. From there, Jerry can help your friend find insurance coverage that includes roadside assistance in case you’re not there the next time.
