If you wear a crash helmet with one of the rotating cylindrical lights (as seen on police cars and fire trucks) on top, perhaps accented with a siren, it might be possible to walk through large crowds easily as people become aware of your presence and mistakenly believe you are a public official.

       Why not some kind of 6-foot wide hula hoop attached to suspenders to protect your personal space? Possibly with some kind of dodgem-car bumper attachment.
