A driveway is named because it was originally a circle that you could use to drive right up to the house. Think old mansions in movies.

Parkways had separated lanes with shrubberies and plants on between and around, basically parks with a road through them.

A driveway that is straight and ends in a garage isn’t really a driveway. Separated lanes with no plants or parks isn’t really a parkway. But the names both stuck around.
