Sounds strange, but try kitty litter. It will absorb the oil and remove the marks on the driveway. Works best on "fresh" spots.

Litter only absorbs the residue and not the staining.
I just did mine yesterday with Muriatic acid and a commercial degreaser, and the spot has virtually vanished.
Certainly I hosed it off after, and didn't have to scrub at all. I suspect whatever you use will effect any ground or plant life adjacent.

Absorb the liquid on the surface with kitty litter then pour Simple Green on it and wash it away. Be aware of your local laws concerning washing such things into the gutter.
