Question

Hello! I claimed my mother as a dependent. I drive her to and from work everyday. Could I claim my car's expenses on her taxes?

No you cannot claim anything for driving your mom to work.  Commuting to and from work has never been deductible for anyone.  You say you claimed her as a dependent--she works "every day."  If she earned more than $4150 in 2018 you cannot claim her as a dependent.
