One track slows or stops, while the other track keeps moving. The tank driver will control those actions by his steering wheel or lateral bars or T-bar inside his driver's compartment. During the Vietnam War, the M48 Patton tank driver had a race car style steering wheel; the M551 Sheridan tank had a T-bar for steering; the M113 ACAV's (Armored Cavalry Assault Vehicle) had lateral bars (rabbit ears) for steering.
