Crisis Ahead. AAA's nationwide campaign Crisis Ahead. Americas Aging Highways and Airways focused public attention on the nation's deteriorating highways and airways and concentrated efforts to correct this growing problem. Periodic AAA national and local club publicity activities on such topics as air traffic control failures, worst bridges and serious traffic bottlenecks continue to help raise public awareness.

Auto Skills. AAA cosponsors Ford/AAA Student Auto Skills, an annual nationwide contest that encourages young people to choose careers in automotive repair.

More than $3 million in scholarships are offered to participants.

AAA Travel High School Challenge.
