In the literal sense of a change in position of a body:

- Drift (railroad), which in railroading is the cutting-off of power and using inertia alone to maintain forward movement
- The condition where a motor vehicle's rear wheels slip at a greater angle than the front wheels; see oversteer
- Intentional use of oversteer for faster cornering in low road surface traction conditions; see Opposite lock

- Genetic drift: mechanism of evolution that change the characteristics of species over time
- Clock drift: a phenomenon where a clock does not run in the exact right speed compared to another clock
- Drift (fluid mechanics): the permanent displacement of fluid particles in an inviscid fluid owing to their kinematic motion when a body passes through it
- Continental drift
- Drift pin, a metalworking tool used to align parts, often just referred to as a drift
- As in drift velocity, describes the movement of a charged particle in an electric field
