Crash into from behind (5)

I believe the answer is:

shunt

(Other definitions for shunt that I've seen before include "Car crash (slang)" , "Push, electrical conductor" , "Transfer rolling stock from track to track" , "Type of road accident" , "Move rolling stock" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
