They're likely to be told to belt up? (4-4,7)
I believe the answer is:
back-seat drivers
'they're likely to be told' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'belt up?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'belt' could be 'seat' (seat belt is a kind of belt) and 'seat' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'to' is the link.
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
