Question

Can I get AAA roadside assistance without having insurance with them?

I'm very happy with my auto insurance provider, but I would like a more comprehensive roadside assistance plan. Is it possible to keep my policy active with Allstate but have roadside coverage with AAA?

You should be able to purchase roadside assistance with AAA without switching your insurance coverage to AAA. Their roadside coverage is actually offered separate from their insurance policies for this specific reason. Most roadside plans offered in conjunction with auto policies have major stipulations and towing restrictions, so if you travel a lot, it might be a good idea to get a more "beefed up" roadside policy.
