There are three possibilities here:

1) the action allow you to move on an impulse your chariot would
normally stand still (thus it's useless at speed 5).

2) the action allow you to move two squares during an impulse your
chariot would normally move one.

3) the action allows you to move first in an impulse ignoring chariot
positions.

Maybe make it the drivers choice.

It would be difficult to determine the legality of this action in the
turns, so maybe it should be limited to in the straightaways.
This is a variant of the pushing action and could be allowed
as an option to that action.
