You think enough people could quit driving cars that they would be able to lower the demand enough to control oil prices?? We are so dependant on oil, I have a feeling they could do just about anything they want, if they charge 4 times as much, they only need 1/4 of the customers. How do you think goods will get shipped around the country, and other things that need oil that aren't optional.
Sadly enough, until we figure out how to make hydrogen powered cars with hydrogen produced by nuclear powered electrolysis, we are going to be way to dependent on fossil fuels to do anyhting about it if the shit hits the fan.
