I believe that's called Clarkson's Disease and mostly affects lovable assholes.

I think a better solution is to give everyone less reasons to need and use cars, that a ban becomes unnecessary. But if we're putting limits on things to reduce their consumption, that's what excise taxes are for, most places already do it for fuel.

And of course there could always be taxation relative to a person or company's environmental impact. People get angry at this one.
