Drive on the back of a train. Just stay in your car as the train takes you to your destination at 100 + mph. Have your choice between a green train, powered by renewable clean electricity, or save money with a train powered by cheap coal generated electricity.

When you arrive at your destination, you just drive off. You get to keep your car, and more of your money.

If you won't be needing your car, you can either take public transit to the rail station or drive your car and park it there. <-This is already done, so we know it works.

Passenger trains can run right over the same rails as the trains carrying cars + people.
