Set up for driving (4)
I believe the answer is:
teed
'driving' is the definition.
The answer and definition are different parts of speech. However, adjectives and past participle verbs can sometimes mean the same thing.
'set up' is the wordplay.
'set' becomes 'tee' (teeing is a kind of setting).
'up' becomes 'd' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'tee'+'d'='TEED'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
