For the purposes of this discussion, the only real recourse you are authorized with is to change worker positions or suggest to the course designers that the course be changed.
You're right. I was pissed when Helen asked me to keep it under control, the SSS has no right to tell someone how to drive.

"This course is not safe as the driver that's decided to drift all over the place is endangering the courseworkers since the worker stations are not 600 ft from the course. Event over, blame the guy that's 'legally' drifting."

How's that? 'Course back in reality, you have a driver that's intentionally driving in a manner that lowers event safety for the sole reason of hot-dogging, and I think a Safety Steward has a responsibility to curb the behavior. If the driver refuses, you kick him/her out, if they refuse to leave citing "RTFRB!!!", then you cancel the event.
