Nice night following one husky driver? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inuit

'husky driver?' is the definition.
(could be someone who owns huskies)

'nice night following one' is the wordplay.
'nice night' becomes 'nuit' ('night' in French - spoken in Nice).
'following' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'nuit' after 'i' is 'INUIT'.

(Other definitions for inuit that I've seen before include "People of the Arctic region" , "Arctic natives" , "people from northern Canada" , "Eskimos" , "Eskimo language" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
