Transportation in New Vegas is very different from what it used to be 60 years ago.
First, there are no roads outside of New Vegas unless its a rubbled ruin of what was once a paved road or a dirt path cut by wagon ruts and VSF patrol vehicles.
Second, there are no cars outside of New Vegas (and other sanctuary cities). The few cars that there are can only be owned by the richest of Vampires. These vehicles are electric, powered by batteries that are charged with solar power (of course humans have to charge them, le duh).
Vehicles are equipped with sun guard protection. In the event that a vampire gets caught out in the sun while traveling, but the car is solar powered so they can continue to drive to safety.
The SUV's that are used by the VSF are Hydrogen powered. These are the vehicles of the future. They can be driven at speeds of up to 250 miles per hour. Only a vampire could keep control of a vehicle going this fast on a dirt road...
HOW DO YOU GET AROUND?
In New Vegas there is a tram system called 'The T' (Think elevated train). Most people use this if they need to go from one district to another. There are three 'T' stations in each district that connect directly with the shuttle system. The shuttles are solar powered.
Other than the T and the shuttles, people walk, jog, bike, skate, skate board and use J.U.M.P. Shoes ( Just Use Man Power- most popular among the working class).

Remember when describing any of the vehicles that they only make the slightest of humming noises and have no exhaust to speak of. They do use hydraulics for the brakes and doors so having this in your descriptions is an option.
These are actually issued to all HUMANS who have a job. They are obtainable by mutants who work at a reasonable price. They come in a matching backpack so people can quickly change their shoes when they get where they are going. They increase a persons pace, allowing them to run at speeds of 20 mph. HELMETS ARE REQUIRED BY ALL HUMANS USING ANY TRANSPORTATION DEVICE so if you are a mutant who looks human and you don't want to get stopped by the VSF for some reason, wear one.
HELMETS ARE REQUIRED BY ALL HUMANS USING ANY TRANSPORTATION DEVICE so if you do not want your mode of transportation revoked, WEAR ONE.
