Would this work on an electric bicycle?

Edit: or more stable tri-cycle/quad-cycle

There have been various autonomous 2-wheeled vehicles, though riding an autonomous vehicle that uses lean steering, like a bike, would seem to entail a little bit more excitement than I'd want to have.

Imagine a driverless bicycle driving back to its base after being used byw the renter. A flywheel keeps its balance while stopped before traffic (lights), the electromotor thrusts it.
