A transport vehicle (1) is provided with a plurality of steering trolleys (7) with a wheeled axle, each of which is rotatable about its own vertical hinge axis (14) under the thrust of its own steering motor (15); the steering motors (15) being controlled by a drive and control assembly (16) having a processing and control unit (24) and a pair of mutually spaced optical sensors (31) (32) aligned along a symmetry axis (4) of the vehicle; the optical sensors (31) (32) being able to detect the angular deviation and the drift deviation of the vehicle (1) with respect to a reference trajectory (18), and the processing and control unit (24) determining a centre of instantaneous rotation (40) of the vehicle (1) based on the deviation signals received by the optical sensors (21; 32) and operating at least part of the steering motors (15) until the axes (12) of all the wheeled axles intersect in the centre of instantaneous rotation (40).
