Box left in driver's place (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tele

'box' is the definition.
(I've seen this in other clues)

'left in driver's place' is the wordplay.
'left' becomes 'l' (common abbreviation).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'driver's place' becomes 'tee' (I've seen this in another clue).
'l' going into 'tee' is 'TELE'.

(Another definition for tele that I've seen is " TV (informal)".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
