When ordering taxi, cross here? (5)

I believe the answer is:

third

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

But I can't explain it at all! Could you help me understand?

(Other definitions for third that I've seen before include "Bronze medal place" , "One of three equal parts" , "Winning bronze medal" , "Last of three" , "Eroica, Beethoven's - symphony" .)
