A wheel, added in Emoji 14. 0. It stands for wheels, tyres and motion — and, inevitably, for the oldest cliché in innovation: do not reinvent the wheel. That phrase is one of the most-used pieces of advice in engineering and business, and it is ignored roughly as often as it is quoted.

That phrase is one of the most-used pieces of advice in engineering and business, and it is ignored roughly as often as it is quoted. It appears in transport contexts, and rather more often in the cliché than on a vehicle.
