Scar Tissue by the Chili Peppers has always been one of those songs that's great driving down a dusty highway when it's blazing hot out, and One Headlight by the Wallflowers for nighttime driving.

I know you're strictly looking for songs, but IMO The Presidents of the United States self titled album is a great road trip album...
What makes a great road trip album, is songs that either
A: get you in the driving mode,
B: can simply relax to
C: are fimiliar enough with everyone that you can bust out a sing a long.
Muse - Knights of cydonia
Modest mouse - float on, Doin' the Cockroach, dashboard
Smashing pumpkins (esp. 1979)
Tom Petty
queen,
alan jackson,
nitty gritty dirt band,
beach boys
Frick I really could go on for days, I'm trying to hit a few different genres there...
Essentially the songs I listen to on road trips are songs that I don't listen to very often thoughout the year while im not on road trips.

"Fall to Pieces" is a great song for when you're driving through the Rockies on the edge of a sheer cliff...

Many Springsteen songs are about driving:
Born To Run, Thunder Road, Darlington County:
Driving in to Darlington County
Me and Wayne on the Fourth of July
Driving in to Darlington County
Looking for some work on the county line
We drove down from New York City
Where the girls are pretty but they just want to know your name
Driving in to Darlington City
Got a union connection with an uncle of Wayne's
We drove eight hundred miles without seeing a cop
We got rock and roll music blasting off the T-top singing
Bob Seger, Roll Me Away:
Took a look down a westbound road,
Right away I made my choice
Headed out to my big two-wheeler,
I was tired of my own voice
Took a bead on the northern plains
And just rolled that power on
Prince, Little Red Corvette:
Girl, u got an ass like I never seen
And the ride...
I say the ride is so smooth
U must be a limousine
Rush, Red Barchetta:
I strip away the old debris, that hides a shining car
A brilliant red barchetta, from a better, vanished time
I fire up the willing engine, responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel, I commit my weekly crime...

I would have to include some Weezer...in particular "Say it ain't so".
Also don't overlook "The Neil"...perhaps Cracklin Rosie or Sweet Caroline?

On the Road Again - Willie Nelson
Johnny Cash
Boys of Summer - the original by Don Henley or the new one by The Atari's
When I go on long rides I listen to different stuff than I noramlly listen to. Your CD looks like my usual collection.
