The average velocity gained by the free electrons of a conductor in the opposite direction of the externally applied electric field is called Drift Velocity.
Charged particles do not travel in a straight line through a conductor, because they collide with other particles in the material. We therefore use the average speed the particle travels at along the conductor. This is called the drift velocity.
