This is not a difficult rule to understand.
1. A runner can run almost anywhere he likes if a play is not being made on him (as long as he is not making a travesty of the game).
2. He must always avoid a defense player who is attempting to field a batted ball.
3. The only time a runner would be called out for leaving the base path is if he is attempting to avoid a tag (or if he is abandonig his effort to run the bases).
