[[File:TS3_Taxi.png|thumb|A Taxicab as it appears in ''The Sims 3'']]Due to the "Open Neighborhood" concept of ''[[The Sims 3]]'', it is no longer necessary to use cabs to travel between lots; however, they still exist and resemble the 4-door version of the [[Car#The Sims 3 models|Yomoshoto Evasion]].

Sims will take cabs to travel to a destination that's considered too far to reach on foot, as long as it's connected to the road. Unless a teen or adult family member is with them, children do not take cabs and instead ride bikes, even if they do not own one. Sims also take a taxi when they carry a [[baby]] or a [[toddler]] even if they have a car or bike in their [[inventory]].

In [[sub-neighborhood]]s, Sims do not take a cab to travel around. Instead, another vehicle will replace the cab for Sims, even if they don't own the vehicle. In ''[[The Sims 3: World Adventures]]'', cabs are replaced by [[Scooter|The Kenspa]] in [[Champs Les Sims]] and [[Al Simhara]], or bicycle in [[Shang Simla]] as the default transportation for a distant travel. In ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'', Sims will take a hover cab in [[Oasis Landing]].

[[File:TS3_Taxi_Speedboat.png|thumb|left|Two Taxi Speedboats as they appear in ''The Sims 3: Island Paradise'']]In ''[[The Sims 3: Island Paradise]]'', when a Sim travels through the water and doesn't have any [[Boat|water vehicles]] (paddleboat, jetski, sailboat, speedboat, or windsurf board), a taxi speedboat will appear for a Sim to go anywhere through the water. The taxi speedboat comes with yellow paint and features a roof sign similar to regular taxi. [[Pet]]s will also take a taxi speedboat to get across the sea.{{Vgversion|TS3:P}}

A rumor that a quirky [[Easter eggs|Easter egg]] had the drivers of cabs being ducks has been proven untrue. At the Creator Camp, they had duck drivers because they had not designed the drivers yet. In the final version, Sims drove the cabs.{{fact}}
