The AA Car Insurance History

As one of the most well known of the UK automobile associations the AA has a history and reputation which goes back to 1905, when it was originally set-up to assist drivers in avoiding police speed traps! As the movement began to move forward, the famous AA handbook was first published in 1906 to the delight of those looking for assistance and advice about the roads of the UK, with AA route maps introduced between 1910 and 1929. By 1914 the AA had a membership of some 83,000 people – nothing short of a miracle in the early 1900s – and the animal which we know so well today was well on the move.

Famous for their breakdown and recovery service, 1949 saw the first official “roadside rescue” and while it was initially restricted to the London area it was soon rolled out across the whole of the UK. Since the first “roadside rescue” was completed the membership of the group has multiplied as have the services available. Car insurance has been a major recipient of interest from the members and the AA are also involved in an array of other third party breakdown recovery services (behind the scenes).The group has been sold on a number of occasions with buyers attracted by the large, loyal customer base which has helped to create a business now worth in the region of £6 billion!

While the online car insurance division will remain one of the central units of the business, it is the level of trust and the fact that they are wholly independent which has allowed the numbers and profits to move ahead so markedly. The AA are now involved in a whole range of insurance services but their online car insurance comparison site is still the centre of much attention.
