* You must also download the following addon for this hack to work correctly:

"Watchout!" - exclaims one of your Sims, directed at a non-moving vehicle with no driver. "OMG!!! It's going to run me over!"
Well obviously not, when there is no driver while the vehicle is parked and not even moving. This hack stops pointless "Watchout!" interactions, similar to the antiwatchout hack from MATY. While that hack conflicts with my "Vehicles cost money to drive" hack, this one does not. You should also read about the problems with the MATY hack in the Known Conflicts section.
The second part of the hack is the "no shuffling" fix. The Watchout and Shuffling issues are intertwined, so I fixed them both in the same hack file. This second part is related to Sims shuffling around endlessly when trying to get into a vehicle. It stops the problem from ever happening.
This hack does not alter taxi behavior; only ownable vehicles are affected.
