Bread cut after vehicle leaves (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cabbage

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'bread' is the first definition.
(I know that bread can be written as cabbage)

'cut after vehicle leaves' is the second definition.
'cabbage' can be an answer for 'leaves' (leafy vegetable). I'm not certain of the 'cut after vehicle' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cabbage that I've seen before include "A Brassica plant" , "Kind of 13" , "Main ingredient of sauerkraut" , "Vegetable plant" , "Leafy vegetable" .)
