Rfv-sense: "A beer for the ride, for consumption while one is driving; a road soda." -- Confusing. Is it a beer or a soda, or just any drink? If it's a beer, is it alcoholic, non-alcoholic or any? Acc. to Urban Dictionary, it's any alcoholic drink consumed (illegally) while driving. --Hekaheka (talk) 04:28, 28 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hmm, definitely heard of a beer as a "roadie". However, if a kid wants to be like his dad, he might call his soda ~his~ version of a roadie, but I wouldn't say that that would necessarily be the definition of it. Leasnam (talk) 04:49, 28 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps worth mentioning that sense 2 comes from road manager, an artiste's personal assistant that took care of their technical and other requirements.
