A negative potential is "attracted" to a positive potential. Thats why you get static shock "just before" you touch the door knob. It "jumps" the gap. Larger the charge, the bigger the "jump" can be. If you could touch it before it arcs, you wouldn't get "zapped".
A charge moving through a conductor does create a circular field around the conductor.
Can't remember if it's the right hand and thumb direction or left hand, but it's there.
