Willis Group's Motor Initiatives team has named the AA as its preferred supplier of roadside assistance and vehicle recovery services.

Motor Initiatives sales and marketing director Graham Harris said he expected the deal to enhance the team's accident and fleet management service called Drive.

"By joining forces with the best in the marketplace, we can offer a premium quality service to our clients and true peace of mind in the event of a breakdown," he said.

Harris said Drive's client base had grown by 200% over the past two years, handling more than 1,000 incidents each month.
