  If your Toro Lawn Mower doesn't drive or track straight, start by checking the tire inflation; inflate to the recommended pressure and ensure tire diameters are approximately equal from side to side. Also, a bent, loose, or misaligned control linkage could be the culprit; repair, adjust, or replace the vehicle linkage. Finally, examine the bypass linkage and adjust it as necessary.
