Would it be fine to have another small box drain or something similar at the beginning of the driveway (maybe a channel drain if it can work) and have it connect to the current box drain and the downspout?

From where this box drain is I believe it connects to another one or two downspouts and travels down a pretty steep slope and off into my backyard in a area we don't use. It currently can handle the water it does get even when this rock area is working so it may not be overrun..maybe.

Oh gotcha, I misread another comment and thought you didn’t have anywhere to run the water. You can throw a drain box in, they make “socks” for them that are going to fill up pretty quickly with sediment but it’ll do the job for one area. You’d still have to connect it with solid pipe to the other run
