Question about Driver role mechanics

Say driver switches A and B.

A is scum, and targets B. Does A then kill himself because of driver's switch?

Also regarding if A was instead a roleblocker, and targets B, A now roleblocks himself?

Or does no self-targeting occur, and it is only a valid option if the person will not end up self-targeting?

The mechanics are pretty straightforward if it's outside targeting in, but I'm in a game on another site where driver exists and this interaction is taking place so I'm a little curious on if there is an 'official' consensus on how this works. The wiki page did not go into detail on how self-targeting scenarios play out.

forcing a role to suicide is a valid outcome of bus driving, redirecting, etc
