AA Pothole Patrols to the rescue
- AA launches AA Pothole Assist
A new initiative to counter the 2.2 million pothole plague which has spread across the UK as a result of three cold winters and cutbacks in road maintenance is launched by the AA today (1).
AA Pothole Assist is a new service following in the footsteps of AA Fuel Assist and AA Battery Assist. As part of AA Pothole Assist, AA patrols will be tasked with filling in any potholes they come across when travelling between breakdown jobs.
The AA is entering into the road maintenance market as a direct response to concerns raised by members:
- The recent AA StreetWatch survey conducted by 2,000 AA members identified potholes as the most serious concern.
- An AA Populus poll of 20,000 members showed that the majority believe that road conditions have deteriorated over the last decade.
- AA Insurance has experienced a four-fold increase in claims
