Bicycle caught in traffic? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peddle

'traffic?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bicycle caught' is the wordplay.
'bicycle' becomes 'pedal' (synonyms).
'caught' shows a homophone (sound like) (to catch something can mean to hear it).
'pedal' is a homophone of 'PEDDLE'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for peddle that I've seen before include "Hawk, sell" , "Travelling salesman does!" , "push" , "Deal in drugs" , "Sell (drugs or something hot?)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
