Abstract
A method and apparatus by which an adult accompanying a child riding a mobile ride-on toy, can continuously determine if the child is free to fully operate the toy, or else, the adult can force the toy to slow down, and/or to stop, and/or to otherwise control the ride-on toy in order to protect the child's safety, is disclosed. The adult can gain control as specified above, by operating a wireless remote-control unit. Furthermore, the adult can limit the distance between the ride-on toy and the adult, so that the child cannot drive too far away from the adult, i.e., the toy automatically stops as soon as the predetermined range limit is reached. Also, the ride-on toy can be used as long as it is under the control of the adult, but it automatically stops when the adult loses control over the ride-on toy.
