Impulse to take to the road (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drive

I believe this is a double definition.

'impulse' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'to the road' is the second definition.
(drive is a kind of road)

'to take' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for drive that I've seen before include "Urge along" , "required for excursion" , "Pilot a 4x4" , "Strong motivation, ambition" , "Control and steer vehicle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
