Smothers car pedals (9)
I believe the answer is:
throttles
This could be a double definition.
'smothers car' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with contact as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'pedals' is the second definition.

Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
