I am going to make this short. My 16 year old nephew just got his drivers license . According to the state rules he can only have one youngster in the car while driving.

He has a car he uses to go to work and school and school functions. He is now in band and it requires he be there 5 days a week for a full day. He is also riding his best friend who lives one block away,

This weekend a mother of another 16 yo EX friend of his called and wanted nephew to drive her son. She is wheelchair bound and usually has her older parents do it.

It was pointed out that nephew has the max amount in his car. The mother then calls back and says the other boy will not be going everyday to band so can nephew drive her son.

Its a bad situation all around but nephew would walk rather than drive this kid. Something must have happened but he will not say.

What to do , and what to say to other mother. My nephews parents work and cannot drive.

I know a life of a teenager is very complicated, maybe I didn't catch all the nuances, but this

... but nephew would walk rather than drive this kid. Something must have happened but he will not say.

says it all for me. A teenager who would rather walk than drive?! I just learned to drive at almost 60 and I drive only 1 person at a time

As people say No is a complete sentence. Nothing else needs to be said. Obviously something happened between the two boys and your nephew doesn't at this time want to spend anytime with the other. I would tell the boys mother that at this time as he is a new driver he is only allowed to drive his best friend as per family rules. We did this as it keep others from hitching rides.
