Magic broom

Magic brooms are a type of transportation that can be used by witches.

The Sims 2: Apartment Life
Witches have many new abilities, including being able to travel to other lots via broomstick.

In The Sims 2: Apartment Life, NPC witches will always arrive on a lot by a flying broom instead of walking, always ascending and descending by the mailbox or the telephone booth. The player can direct a playable witch to either fly with a broom, instead of walking or choose any other means of transport to arrive onto a community lot.

The Sims 3: Supernatural
In The Sims 3: Supernatural, brooms are a form of transportation objects added to the game. Not only are they as fast as teleporting, but they are available to all Sims. Unlike in The Sims 2: Apartment Life, these come in a form of a buyable vehicle and any Sim (that's a child or older) can use them. Sims, just like with typical motor vehicles, can only ride magical brooms on roads.

Note: The player needs to purchase a broomstand for the broom for it to work.

Witches will use a broom as their default long-distance transportation, even if they do not have one in their inventory. Witch children ride a broom that has training wheels ("Zoomsweeper Junior"). Witches benefit the most from using brooms, as their magic power replenishes faster while riding one, or while performing stunts and tricks on the magic broom arena.

Broom riding
Besides using a broom as a form of transportation to practice, purchasing a broom riding arena is the fastest way to increase the hidden broom riding skill. Sims start off as joy riding amateurs, and soon turn into broom riding experts. Once a Sim gains one skill level, they can begin stunt riding.

With each new skill level gained while stunt riding, comes new stunts that Sims will perform. Once a Sim reaches level 5 in broom riding, they can then "Stunt Ride For Tips". Not only does this let Sims gain even more experience, but it brings in some extra cash.
