I wouldn't hate any wheelman. They get little enough love as is.
However, I'd be curious why you'd bother with a low level control rig for a driver. If you're driving a car in AR while using wired reflexes and high reaction attribute lets you do about 90% of what you could be doing if you were rigging anyway, PLUS retaining control of your body for actions like shooting a gun out the side window or etc. Not to mention, a wired-up driver is basically 3/4 of the way to being a samurai already, so you're pretty useful outside the car, to boot.
