are the front wheels driven by the steering wheel so the kid can actually drive around by himself? Thanks

No, it is Flintstone driven. If the paddled their feet toward the left they go left. The wheel helps them hold on to something for leverage but it just turns freely.

No, it's more like a model, not a very functional toy. When you turn the steering wheel, the skids turn a little, but that's about it.

In our experience the free wheel is only for forward motion. when you back pedal it applies the brakes. This has had some interesting consequences for the second child in the back seat on ours which is built out as a tandem bike. A frustrated toddler in the front seat can lock up the brakes suddenly when they dont want to go back into the driveway home :)

yes. The front wheels turn. It helped our twin grandsons learn to walk. They love pushing it or riding in it.

Yes you can steer the vehicles. However they do come apart fairly easily. My son absolutely loves it, but does tend to just build vehicles for fun, not necessarily to use with the remote control.

This one would be great for him, my son was 3 when I bought it and strong/athletic. However, my neighbor has one where the front wheel actually turns & it's way easier for the kids to maneuver. I kinda wish I had that one, but my son still loves his, too

Yes - the steering wheel turns the front wheels. The sound effects are great on it, too. It actually sounds like a piece of heavy equipment starting up withone button, another button makes the sound of it idling, and it has a great horn!

The steering wheel controls the wheels just enough to make little turns. I would say the wheel probably turns about 2 inches to the right and 2 to the left, making wide turns. Perfect for my two year old.

no, there's no steering. The front wheels do turn but they aren't connect to the steering wheel.

No. The wheel turns and the child can move card what direction with their feet, but they can't actually steer with the steering wheel.

Yes - my 5 year old can drive it around and use the controls without issues.

The pedals do move on their own when you are pushing it. The child can put their foot on the pedals and they will stop turning and make a ratcheting sound when their foot is against it. That way their feet don't get wrapped up in the pedals.

No. My daughter doesn't know how to ride by herself either. The attachment is sturdy so that the main bike keeps it balanced.

If I understand your question correctly... You can take off the rear adult handle bars and rod so that the child, when he grows up and becomes able, can do his own peddling and steering. So, if that's what you mean, then yes, he can.

Effectively, yes. The machine goes forward by default, and you control the steering by applying break to each wheel independently (break levers are on each handle). Squeeze the left level to slow the left wheel...which turns the machine left.

Yes the can Fred Flinstone it :) Mine can almost touch the pedals & pushes himself & steers, he is 2, we pull the steering off when he does his thing

Yes the wheels on the cars turn. My grandson scoots the cars all over the place.
