    IMO the meme is mocking those who think vehicles are only car-shaped objects, in light of cities imposing restrictions on personal motor vehicle use in built up areas

    I doubt it has anything to do with emergency services being restricted to the vehicles shown lol…

      I agree, emergency vehicles could still service a lot of pedestrian and cycle access areas if they are designed for it. Many pedestrian areas even allow delivery vehicles in at slow speeds to some businesses and vehicles for garbage, trailers for renovations and other access could be permited as needed.

      Things like renovating a roof or delivering an industrial fridge to a restaurant often still require truck access, we just aren’t gonna let everyone drive a truck to the front door just to buy a dozen cookies.
