    I've used kitty litter and either a strong APC or commcercial degreaser. First sprinkle the kitty litter over the stain, let sit for an hour or so, crush the kitty litter into the stain with some old shoes or boots until it is in powder form. Then let it sit for a little while longer, sweep up, and dispose. Then start attacking the remaining stain with some strong APC or degreaser and a stiff brush. Rinse and repeat as needed. You may not completely remove the stain but it will fade over time afterwards.

    What kind of driveway is it? If it's concrete, order ACT Concrete Cleaner. I've used it with great success. It's a powder you sprinkle and brush over the spot, and let sit for a couple days. They also make an asphalt cleaner too, same concept.
