The solution is to allow a charity to issue the voucher for an eligible car in lieu of a tax dedcution. The charity would then junk the car in accordance wuth the law.

CAFE standard has been 27.5mpg since 1990. Even if you trade in a clunker with 12mpg and buy a car with 22mpg, you've nearly halved your carbon output and oil consumption. This is where the biggest improvement can be made quickly. The Feinstein bill in the senate is more aggressive than Stabenow's bill for environmental improvements.
