Drivers wear the ugly brown jumpsuits, and cannot be interacted with. Occasionally they walk by downtown, or get gypsy- or well-summoned apparently.
They're the Sims driving the taxis and carpools.


I guess that I've been lucky, none of my sims have ever seen a driver.  I rarely use the gypsy because I am sort of a control freak about which sims I allow my sims to get intimate with (plus, I get angry when my knowledge sim's turn ons are vamps and blondes and instead of getting the contessa I get Meadow Thayer...And I had to pay 4600 simoleans for a sim that walks by all of my houses like 30 times a day...woo).  Even my romance sims mostly just find their woohoo-buddies from the walk by parade.  And my community lots seem to be cursed by sadorandom.  I'll take my single romance sim out for a night of dancing and the club will be filled with 300 cats, 200 dogs, and exactly 2 non-NPC sims.  But I digress.

I use TJ's crystal ball instead of the gypsy.  Gives you a choice of sims to pick, and can be configured to ignore specific age groups, committed status, gender preferences, townies, npcs or playables.  Actually, I use it more to find people that my sims will make friends with easily.  But also to find spouses.  Combined with ACR it makes the game interesting further down the track, when they meet their two- or three-bolt best friends on community lots ;)

I use TJ's visitor controller (original version here, new beta version here) to stop the pets appearing on community lots in the neighbourhoods where I have strays.  Since I also use clean templates from the Peasanty section of the board, most of my neighbourhoods don't have strays anyway.

fff:
What about the psychiatrist/psychologist/guy who appears when your Sim spazzes out? I've heard he produces hideous offspring, but is that the only reason I should prevent him from bumping uglies with any of my Sims?

Thank you thank you thank you!!  I'm already using ACR and I am enjoying the terrible situations it can create for some of my sims.  I always make sibs go to college all together, so I had an older sister, her boyfriend, and her twin younger sisters.  The twins were romance/knowledge.  The romance sim was constantly picking up random visitors and taking them to bed with her, but at least she left the boyfriend alone.  The KNOWLEDGE sim was the bad one!  If I didn't watch her every minute she would try to kiss or flirt with him!  Lucky for her she never did it while the sister was in the room.  That usually would have just amused me, but I want this sim to become an old spinster, possibly with an alien child.  But then I found macrotastics and made sure that she was in power idle anytime I wasn't paying attention to her.  Wow, I kind of got off the point there...
