What we need is an energy policy that rewards people for using the commodity more efficiently. Those with more efficient vehicles should receive some sort of tax credit. Or, more radically, how about if every car registration received an allotment of fuel sufficient to take you 12,000 miles at a consumption rate of 25 mpg at which the market price would apply. Any usage beyond that would be at market price plus 10%, the 10% being set aside for the development of alternate fuel sources.
