What is Drive (rail) in Squash?

The bread-and-butter shot: a straight hit down the wall to a deep length, ideally clinging to the side wall. Straight drives are the default exchange from which all attacking chances are built.

Example: They traded fourteen straight drives down the backhand wall before anyone attacked.
