Infallible authorities lose car that's ordered (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oracles

'infallible authorities' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'lose car that's ordered' is the wordplay.
'that's ordered' indicates anagramming the letters.
'lose'+'car'='losecar'
'losecar' with letters rearranged gives 'ORACLES'.

(Other definitions for oracles that I've seen before include "Solacer for wise or knowledgeable people" , "Places where ancient Greek consulted their gods" , "They were consulted by ancient Greeks" , "Prophets, seers" , "They would be asked questions" .)
