My first response was to say you could use the turn signals to signal the opposite side motor controller to work only, but not many use turn signals.
I built a simple electric scooter once with the 2 rear motors in parallel with a golf cart speed controller for that situation. This way it could make tight turns. The inner motor/wheel could break loose and make it start to drift i you hammered it.
