Most of the half tracks did not have steering brakes and relied on the front wheels to turn. this made them dogs to manouver. Even the Landrover halftrack in the 80's had this problem which killed it. Even a manual brake for each track would help a lot. I was really surprised when I found out about this issue, as it seems so apparent. I don't know if the Germans came up with a solution. A dual action brake Master cylinder hooked to the brake lines would also work I think.
