Drove crazy, I had. Went too far (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

overdid

'went too far' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'drove crazy i had' is the wordplay.
'crazy' is an anagram indicator.
'i had' becomes 'id' (I'd).
'drove' anagrammed gives 'overd'.
'overd'+'id'='OVERDID'

(Other definitions for overdid that I've seen before include "Exaggerated" , "went too far" , "operated excessively" , "Made too much of" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
