Your paternal uncle's daughter is a non-, and she must be treated as such. Accompanying her to any place is a pretext for temptation, and her riding with you in the car constitutes (private seclusion), because some contemporary scholars have issued a that a woman riding alone with a driver is khalwa. Therefore, the causes of temptation must be avoided.
