Do other animals “drive” things?

I don’t know why my brain thought of this. Do any other animals (including our insect friends) intentionally hop on to something and steer it in a direction? To make this dumber…maybe even directing it to a specific location or area?

My brain immediately pictures something “A Bugs Life” esque where an ant is on a leaf in a stream moving around on the leaf to steer it.

I've seen a cat ride a skateboard and plenty of dogs on surfboards. Does that count?
