We numerically study the Loewner driving function Ut of a site percolation cluster boundary on the triangular lattice for p<pc. It is found that Ut shows a drifted random walk with a finite crossover time. Within this crossover time, the averaged driving function Ut shows a scaling behavior −(pcp)t(ν+1)/2ν with a superdiffusive fluctuation whereas, beyond the crossover time, the driving function Ut undergoes a normal diffusion with Hurst exponent 1/2 but with the drift velocity proportional to (pcp)ν, where ν=4/3 is the critical exponent for two-dimensional percolation correlation length. The crossover time diverges as (pcp)−2ν as ppc.
