'to get a point across' means to make something understood
'drive off' simply means to move away in a car, unless there is some kind of double meaning there

To get a point across , could mean a physical example, such as, I push you into an oncoming car to illustrate(get the point across) that this would screw up your day pretty badly.
Drive off, I would drive off after pushing you in front of the oncoming car( to avoid arrest) and not have to deal with the drivers of the oncoming car.

"To get a point across" means to really make yourself understood or have your opinions accepted.
"Drive off" means to leave a place by car. Do you mean "drive a point home" which means what "get a point across" means?
