SNAIL OLR:
9: Defensive Driving:
A:
Leading cars have the right to choose their own line down a straight. They can change their racing line once while driving down a straight (Move from the outside line to the inside, or vice versa). As they approach the next corner, they can return to the racing line of their choice. However, they are not allowed to change their line when the behind driver is directly behind and changes his line to try and make a pass. If your movement causes an accident, you are responsible.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Obviously there are many variables the can impact the right or wrong thing to do, not the least of which is the timing of change in directions for the cars involved and how close they are to each other. Since the ahead driver can not change line a second time, you can try "The Dummy" move. Move to make a pass, when the driver moves over you can then quickly move back and make your pass.
This video explains both situations.
Dangerous blocking moves can and should be filed with the race stewards.
