Ross

shuttle

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

'commuter' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'lets out borders cabin' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'borders' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters are bordered by others).
'cabin' becomes 'hut' (I've seen this in another clue).
'lets' anagrammed gives 'stle'.
'stle' placed around 'hut' is 'SHUTTLE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for shuttle that I've seen before include "Public transport going back and forth between two points" , "Commute" , "NASA space transport" , "Back-and-forth transport" , "Transport plying to and fro" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
