Hours behind wheel

A long drive is an extended journey by car, typically lasting several hours: It's a long drive from Chicago to Denver.

In golf, a long drive is a powerful shot off the tee that sends the ball a considerable distance down the fairway.

Long drive competitions test who can hit a golf ball the farthest.
