We associate to any parameter $ (\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha _{2d}) $ of the Dirichlet law a time-change to accelerate the walk. We prove that the continuous-time accelerated walk has an absolutely continuous invariant probability measure for the environment viewed from the particle. This allows to characterize directional transience for the initial RWDE. It solves as a corollary the problem of Kalikow's $0-1$ law in the Dirichlet case in any dimension. Furthermore, we find the polynomial order of the magnitude of the original walk's displacement.
