Hi,
The following scenario is from House of Cards, which is an American TV drama.
A female journalist visited a congressman for trying to get an interview in the late night. She intentionally wore push up bra and low cut V-neck. Later the congressman walked her out to the door, when his wife returned. She told the journalist, " Drive safe, there's a lot of ice on the road".
I was told a verb should be modified by an adverb. I don't understand why in above context the woman said, "drive safe" instead of drive safely". Could you illuminate it?
Thank you!
