RSS4939 AAA has launched the latest addition to its suite of free mobile applications with the release of the AAA Insurance app for iPhone and iPad that walks drivers through the post-traffic crash process of collecting information, photos, as well as providing one-touch access to call police and emergency services, AAA to request a tow, and the AAA Insurance claims department, for those AAA Insurance policyholders.

The app allows users to store their auto insurance company's contact information, policy number, drivers on the policy and vehicles on the policy, which can be password protected for privacy. Additionally, users can view a summary of the traffic crash details and email a report straight from their iPhone.

"Being involved in a traffic crash can be traumatic, even if all the parties involved are uninjured. There are a lot of things to do and information to collect following a collision that can seem overwhelming when combined with the stress of a car crash," said Jeff Green, AAA national managing director of Wireless Product Strategy and Programs. "The AAA Insurance app provides step-by-step instructions on what information you should gather, including photos, in addition to requesting a tow truck for you."
