ABSTRACT:
In a vehicle having steerable front wheels and steerable rear wheels, a movable member is connected with the rear wheels to steer the rear wheels upon movement of the member. A motor moves the member in response to steering the front wheels. Movement of the member is blocked in response to failure of the motor. A switch is provided for selecting between front wheel only steering and combined front and rear wheel steering. When combined front and rear wheel steering is selected, movement of the member is permitted.
