If a mama rabbit gave birth less than 24 hours ago, it is okay to bring mama and her baby to the vet?

Currently the nest box has one baby and is in the kennel. Her water and pellets are also in the kennel. I have a little area secured outside the kennel for her litter box.

The vet told me to bring her in, she had an existing appointment for tomorrow morning. She told me to bring the baby too. Will they be okay for the drive? Or will it stress her out too much?
 
It's not going to bother the baby any. The baby will likely just nap all snuggled up in the nest box during the whole thing, if mom has been good about nursing the kit and it has a full belly.
