The solution with current tech is bullet trains. Unless we want to move towards the direction that mass transit took in Minority Report, where your "car" is effectively an automated mobile room.
Modern solutions for moving fast in a safe and efficient manner almost always require taking control away from the individual...and I am not sure that's where we want cars to go.
I'd much rather support a mass transit system for my normal commute, and then have my car(s) for the inconsistent trips for groceries and dates and vacations and road trips. No doubt there is a stigma with mass-transit in the states, but it's something that's shooting us in the foot and we're going to have to grow up eventually.
