London / G-Wizz / Silence

Having spent most of last week in London (Tottenham Court Road-ish), I couldn’t help but notice the (silent) little G-wizzes dashing about.
Now, I can see a couple of problems here:
1. You don’t hear the little buggers coming.
2. They are driven by nutters.
So they whizz around, generally ignoring any traffic lights/ crossings/ lane restrictions, AND you don’t hear them coming.
Do they have brakes? Who knows? I’ve never seen one slow down.
The only upside is that one tap from a real car, (or possibly a cyclist) and it will disintegrate.
Quick question: Why is the arse-end suspended three feet in the air?
