Ice creams dropped on the motorway (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cones

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'ice creams' is the first definition.
(ice cream cones)

'dropped on the motorway' is the second definition.
(cones may be placed on a road)

(Other definitions for cones that I've seen before include "Round shapes with tapering sides" , "subject of a former hotline" , "Ice-cream holders or fruits of pine trees" , "Shapes of wafers for ice-cream" , "Cornets" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
