Parece que a palavra "rodas" está sendo usada no sentido de "veículo", que faz um certo sentido, pois quase todos os veículos no ambiente urbano usam rodas. Mas nunca vi o termo usado assim...
A discordância do plural com o singular sugere que a palavra "rodas" é uma abreviação - de "veículos com rodas"?
