The gears don't lock up, but there is an interaction between the drive and steering motors.

If the drive shaft (the vertical shaft shown in your picture) is held fixed and you steer the wheel, the wheel will also rotate about its axis.

If you apply a fixed torque to the drive shaft, then the wheel will speed up or slow down a little as you are steering it.
