I asked my mom, “Is he the worst driver you’ve ever seen?” And Mom said, “He’s definitely the worst.” vs I asked my mom, “Is he the worst driver you’ve ever seen today?” And Mom said, “He’s definitely the worst.”

The first phrase is correct. The addition of "today" in the second phrase is unnecessary and changes the meaning of the sentence. The original question is about the worst driver ever seen, not just on a particular day.
