Driving without a license with baby in car

Basically, someone I know is driving without a license. She has just bought a car and started driving lessons but doesn't want to wait for passing her test. She is 6 months pregnant and has a 1 year old in the car with her. Her mum, who also doesn't have a license, condones this and lets her daughter ferry her around as well. They say it's the norm, that everyone does this before they pass their test. Her mum found the concern funny and laughed. The way I see it is she is putting her child and unborn baby at risk. She is also putting other drivers at risk. In my opinion she is being monumentally stupid and selfish. She is never going to listen to any sense, she is a law student so knows the facts. WIBU to report it? Or is it none of my business?

I don't understand why you didn't report this right away before coming here to discuss it. This woman has no right to be driving a car.

Report it.

So OP - what have you done?

@JellyBabiesFan

You absolutely have a moral obligation to report her. Please call 111 and give details of the car, address and when she does the nursery drop off. People die on the road each die and many are attibuted to poor driving.
Yes, but a duty to report to the Police, not the NHS.

Report her straight away it is a total no no she is totally out of order,tell Police what time she leaves in the mornings so they can catch her at it and hopefully she will have the book thrown at her.it will not have a good effect on her Law Degree when she gets a record against her name.

I reported my neighbour for this 7 years ago. The police arrived within 30mins. Unfortunately the pice told the neighbour it was me and I was harassed by his family and had to move. I don't regret it though.
