The AAA Foundation was established in 1947 as a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit research affiliate of AAA/CAA with a North American focus. Its mission is to identify traffic safety problems, foster research for solutions, and disseminate information and education resources, funded through donations. Surveys have found that aggressive driving is a serious concern, with 32% of respondents in 2005 viewing it as the same threat as drunk driving.
