AAA

Roadside assistance group

AAA typically stands for the American Automobile Association, a federation providing roadside assistance, travel services, and insurance to members: I called AAA when my car broke down.

In other contexts, AAA refers to the highest credit rating for bonds, a standard battery size, or the level of minor league baseball just below the majors: He spent three years in AAA before getting called up.
