If you are stopped for a motor vehicle violation in some states on the mainland, your AAA membership card and Guaranteed Arrest Bond Certificate may be accepted instead of cash bail if the fine for the violation is $1,000 or less. Guaranteed Arrest Bond Certificates are available at the AAA office or can be downloaded online.
Exceptions: Offenses not covered include driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquors, drugs or narcotics; failure to appear for violations; driving on a suspended/revoked driver's license; hit and run; failure to present evidence of insurance; illegal use or falsification of license or registration; engaging in a felony; attempting to elude/eluding police; or while driving a vehicle used for commercial purposes. Additional terms and conditions apply.
General Insurance Company of America (GICA) administers the Guaranteed Arrest Bond program. By using the Guaranteed Arrest Bond Certificate, you agree to reimburse AAA or GICA for the total combined amount of any fines, forfeitures, court costs, and other costs paid by AAA and/or GICA in connection with the use of the Certificate.
Note: While the Guaranteed Arrest Bond benefit continues, the Bail Bond is no longer available due to low usage.
