Uranium could be used to fuel an automobile, in theory. Practicality, however, is another thing.
Ford once had a concept car called the Nucleon, which was designed to have a small nuclear reactor in the rear. The project was never pursued as safety and legal considerations prohibited it. Current laws would make such a thing impossible. Changing the laws is probably politically impossible.
