[quote=Anonymous]She's already at at least 3 strikes between 2 accidents with your car and the combined feedback from everyone involved in the car pool and you kids about her driving.  What exactly would it take for you to consider her a bad enough driver to stop putting your kids in the car with her?  An actual accident with someone injured?  Then how would you feel?

If you want to give her one more chance, sure - get whatever monitoring technology that you think will give you more confidence in her monitoring her driving, but if she's been driving this way for 20 years the habits may be too ingrained to break.  If you do decide to keep her for driving your kids, I would not hesitate to be completely honest with her about why she's not driving in the carpool.  At least she'll understand that this is a serious issue and not something that she can just try to brush aside.

Our nanny was in an accident with our baby in the car (not her fault).  The baby was fine, but it was a wake-up call to remind me that these things can definitely happen and one of our jobs as parents is to try to keep our kids out of harms way.  [/quote]
