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

This clue could be a double definition.

'illicit trade' is the first definition.
'traffic' can be an answer for 'trade' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'illicit' bit.

'vehicles' is the second definition.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for traffic that I've seen before include "Deals" , "used cars" , "Lots of vehicles" , "Group" , "Deal in, trade" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
