A woman saw an electrician walking up her drive and rushed to the door.
"Why did you come today?" she barked. "You were supposed to repair the doorbell yesterday?
I know," the electrician replied. "I rang three times. There was no answer, so I thought you must be out."

Kama : I'm Japanese. The joke is excellent, but apart from it, I have a question about "walking up her drive." I understand that the "drive" in this context means "driveway" in AE, and "drive" in BE according to the Cambridge Dictionary. I'm not sure "drive" is also OK in AE nowadays or not familiar but does. Sorry for my poor English. Kindly explain to me, please. Thank you in advance.
chihuahuabulldog : Drive in this joke means her driveway toward her home.
