You are not allowed to hinder her right to mobility.

Actually, if an au pair is not capable of driving, you are not allowed to hinder the right of fellow motorists to be safe in their own cars. The AP can decide if the existing public transportation is good enough for her, and if not, rematch. Much like many host parents had to get along without a car in college or during their first job. Au pairs need to be resourceful and share rides with friends, if they are not capable of driving. We have a toddler and we screen heavily for good drivers, if someone couldn't drive, we would rematch if driving lessons didn't do the trick.

+100.

I don't understand the families that think it's ok to let their AP drive socially but aren't good enough to drive the kids around. Those families are STILL LIABLE for the AP's crappy driving. There are horror stories families get sued for beyond what car insurance covers, which has limits to coverage. [/quote]
