      Yellow vest was a very non parisian protest. Some gathered in Paris because unfortunately if it’s not in Paris, media doesn’t care as much but most of the protesters were not from Paris.

      Technically I suppose walking is a zero wheel vehicle and public transport has less than one wheel per passenger too.

    This would be a dream here in NYC. Our car drivers are absolutely batshit insane (so are the cyclists but not nearly as much as cars)
