You haven’t actually watched the Flintstones then. They aren’t sitting in that thing, they are standing upright with nothing to hold them up, so they can’t coast at all.
Watch it some more. They are chairs that their feet dangle out the bottom. The angle and drawing in the intro makes it seem like there’s no seat. But in other scenes it’s clearly there.

Lmao, I know we can barely see him in this pic, but Dino’s character design is pure comedy gold.
Hmm you’re right, granted the last time i watch flintstone is…25 years ago?
But it still act like a cart and could hold stuff in that case.
They do sit down, run for a bit and then raise their feet. I remember it clearly because I put too much thought into that as a kid. Lol
I’m surprised they didn’t just have an animal doing the running for them.
it’s a reflection of 1960s ubiquitous car culture, to Americans in the 1960’s, automobiles were thought as the only practical form of transportation
