Update at 10:34 a.m.: Traffic is being diverted at Exit 205. There are currently 3 miles of delays. Motorists should consider alternate routes to avoid additional delays.

It's pretty simple-Buckle up, everyone, every time! Hey parents, being a good role model and wearing your seatbelt is a great first step in teaching young ones that it's the first thing you do when you get in the vehicle.

Update at 2:00 p.m.: All WB lanes of I-64 continue to be closed near the I-295 exit at MM 200. There are currently 6 miles of delays at the Exit 205 diversion point. Motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes and avoid significant delays.

Great information for drivers ➡️ turn lanes in the middle of the road are not a median or barrier and drivers need to be stopping for buses going the opposite direction.

We want to give a shout out to all the AAA School Safety Patrollers who are now on duty. For more than a century, AAA has supported this important safety & leadership program that empowers students to create a safer environment for pedestrians & bus/car riders.

Even in temperatures as low as 60°F, the inside of a car can overheat quickly. Accidentally leaving a sleeping child behind could be deadly. Parents and caregivers: prevent vehicular heatstroke and make sure to always check the back seat before you leave the car. #StopLookLock

Move Over Monday: Slow down and give space to emergency vehicles on the road. It's not just a law, it's about safety for everyone.

Fraudulent emails or SMS text messages branded as AAA are being sent to recipients congratulating them on "winning" or having an "expiring offer for a car emergency kit." AAA did not send these emails, & they could potentially be malicious. Do not open or click any links in these

Teaching kids about safety is as importance as reading and writing. Back to School is a reminder to take the time to educate your children about pedestrian and bicycle safety.

Thanks to the AAA School Safety Patrol at Clover Hill ES for having me out today for a swearing-in ceremony for all of the fall safeties. The team looks great & is ready to go for the 1st semester. Good luck patrollers, I look forward to seeing you on duty at your posts! Chesterfield Schools

Deer mating season will be here soon, and so will be the increased risk of deer-related collisions. Stay alert on the roads, especially during early morning and evening commutes.

Did you know...the gas you put in your car does have an expiration date. If you drive regularly, it's not a problem. But, if you have a classic vehicle or one you rarely drive, it's a concern. AAA Club Alliance cluballiance.aaa.com/the-extra-mile…

Even if you're not traveling soon, it's a good time to check your passport. If it's expiring soon, start the renewal process now. You can get passport photo taken at our AAA locations. Passports expiring in less than 6 months aren't valid in many countries cluballiance.aaa.com/the-extra-mile…
