Roger asked about AAA vs. Better World Club, and specifically about their lobbying. Here's what they have to say on their website:
- *BWC is NOT *part of the Highway Lobby -- the conglomerate of automobile, oil, tire, and cement interests that advocates for more and larger road building and against the development of infrastructure and safety protections for other modes of transportation, including mass transit, bicycling, and walking. *AAA is part of the Highway Lobby*. - Good info here http://www.betterworldclub.com/roadside-assistance/how-we-compare/ if you are interested in learning more. Quote: I don't like AAA because of their lobbying practices. ???
