[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't even a little bit understand why the "magnanimous" thing to do would be to pay someone else's traffic violation ticket. [/quote]

That's the price of being an employer. Employees screw up sometimes, while carrying out your business. It was nonetheless your business, and your responsibility. If OPs nanny had not been driving her children, nanny wouldn't have gotten the ticket. Yes it's her ticket, but OP is the employer. OP could rightfully decide that she no longer trusts this employee to do the driving, but that's what her choice is, not whether or not this is hers to shoulder. It is. [/quote]

Still don't get it. To use your example, if I drive my federal agency's car on business (which I do sometimes) or if I am driving to a conference in a rental car, I still pay for any tickets I get. I pay for any damage to the car.

What you're saying is that employees are not responsible for their actions as long as they're in duty. [/quote]
