AAA has always taken an active role in traffic safety and took it a step further by launching the Adult Crossing Guard Program. Stemming from recommendations from the School Safety Task Force, AAA created and produced the state's first ever Handbook for Adult Crossing Guards and designed highly visible vests and hats to be worn by crossing guards. AAA Arizona also participates in the annual crossing guard training, sponsored by Maricopa Association of Governments.
The Handbook for Adult Crossing Guards is a step-by-step guide to educate crossing guards on how to accomplish their job safely and effectively. It includes information on emergency procedures, local traffic regulations, crossing guard responsibilities and the correct procedure for crossing children.
