So I totally agree they should be able to get in car, or on bike, and go without the magical valet, snap your fingers, and go. Also, once you get to said destination, and then leave why must I be leaving in a taxi?

In addition, what if I just want to cruise around town without a said destination? Why can't I drive my car?

Lastly, the Sims teaser you had to learn how to drive...why not on the game?
