Besides wanting to drive a bus and taxi, my boy also wants to drive the police car. He would dash to the living room window everytime we tell him that there is a police car down at the streets. A distraction tactic I deploy often and always work.
He used to ask me if he can drive the police car and where it is going. After he learnt that the police car can't be driven by just anyone, he would tell me whenever a police car passes us on the streets that "when I am a policeman, I can drive the police car", followed by several nods, as if a form of self-assurance and self-consolation.
I have yet to explain to him that policemen have bigger duties than just driving the car, but why spoil that innocence when he seems contented enough with his current assumptions.
