Take car and leave it here overnight? (5)

I believe the answer is:

drive

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'take' is the definition.
(I know that take can be written as drive)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for drive that I've seen before include "Steer; trip" , "Determination, ambition" , "spin" , "Strong motivation, ambition" , "Motivation, energy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
