In the White trailer, she doesn't start using Dust until after getting punched, and the dash-lunge is the second thing she does in the fight, after a dodge. I agree with you on that, I don't think Weiss uses dust for her speed. I'm more under the impression that she uses her Aura, seeing as when she sends Ruby up the cliff with the Nevermore (using those same white circles as when she propels herself) we get a clear shot of her looking exhausted, like Pyrrha after unlocking Jaune's Aura.

Personally I'd place Weiss and Blake somewhere equal, with maybe Weiss ahead on speed solely because Blake appears more agility/stealth/evasion oriented and not one for straight-forward attacking. Ruby uses a lot of Crescent Rose's recoil to move quickly, though we have seen her several times appearing out of nowhere as people have said. And then there's Yang, who's not really speed oriented at all. I mean, she can still move pretty fast, but she's more just WHAM SMACK POW straight to the face and not 'pretty ballerina ice skate dance' or 'after-image shadow flash' kinda thing.
