Because I get roadside assistance as part of car insurance for much cheaper.

Unless you pay for an extra package the "roadside assistance" on your typical policy only covers if you're involved in an accident. AAA covers you no matter what the reason. If your battery dies your insurance policy normally doesn't cover that, whereas AAA will.

Also most insurance doesn’t have the network or amount of tow trucks and on the road assistance personnel as trip A. Also insurance general reimburses you after you pay for a tow where’s AAA gives x amount 100 mile towed a year.

Flat tire, dead battery, quick tow, locked keys in car, tire change, easy and faster passport and DL renewal or replacement…I think the annual membership fee is cheap as fuck,

This hasn't been my experience. I've had my battery jump started a couple of times on my insurance's roadside assistance program.
