A senior minister accused of repeatedly using taxpayer-funded drivers for non-work purposes has bowed to increasing pressure and quit cabinet.
NSW Premier Chris Minns had defended Transport Minister Jo Haylen after a series of car-related scandals in which she tasked a driver to take her to a boozy winery lunch and drop her children off at weekend sport in Sydney.
But Ms Haylen announced she would quit her cabinet post on Tuesday afternoon while continuing to serve in her local electorate.
