Roller skates are clearly not a vehicle. Similarly, neither is a wheelchair. They are not reasonably separable form the person using them.

A bicycle actually goes on roads, follow rules and get a ticket for jumping a red light.

It isn't so clear to me. If it conveys a human in any way that humans don't naturally move unassisted then in my mind it qualifies as a conveyance and hence a vehicle, especially in the sense of the the French véhicule, from Latin vehiculum (“a carriage, conveyance”), from vehere (“to carry”)

Stilts? How tall? Platform shoes? How tall?

The person riding the bicycle does those things, the bicycle is a tool. A tool can't follow rules.

You can take roller skates off, get out of a wheelchair, and get off a bicycle.

Imagine you were wearing roller skates being pulled by a dog.

Imagine you were sitting in a chair, with a roller skate bound to each leg of the chair, rolling down a hill.

Imagine you were a flea in a roller skate rolling down a hill.

Imagine you were a dog in a wheelchair rolling down a hill.

Imagine you were a flea on a dog in a chair with roller skates on its legs rolling down a hill.

> Roller skates are clearly not a vehicle

I don't think that's particularly clear and I think a non-negligible number of people would disagree
