I've had good results using a shock collar. I know it sounds inhumane, but it works! Put the collar on any time you take the dog somewhere. It will only take a few times for him/her to realize that if they bark, they get shocked. After a while they stop barking when they are in the car. BUT, put the collar on EVERY time you take him/her somewhere for at least a few months, then take the batteries out. The dog won't know that batteries are out, but will still know the collar is on.

My dogs do it all the time - I have heard the best way to do it is to take them in the car when you have nothing else to do. When they bark at something stop the car. when they quieten down, drive on - and keep doing it this way.
I haven't done it because I feel it is a bit of security for me when out alone with them. They are only telling the person/motorbike etc., to stay away from their space.
I used to praise the dogs and give them a tit-bit when I said 'no barking' and they stopped - sometimes this still works.
You could take the dogs for training lessons but be careful sending them away for training because there are some very unkind people out there - your dogs could come back broken - believe me it is a pitiful sight.
I wish you good luck

I've never heard anything so ridiculous, you never use a shock collar when there is more than 1 dog in the car as the barking of one can end up punishing the other.
The main problem is that you have more than one dog in the car and they set each other off. Plus you don''t have any control over the pack if you can't just tell them to quit it. Its understandable if you are out of the car but not if you are in it.
You need a comprehensive training plan that involves working with each dog individually, not trying to tackle the whole lot in one go. You would need to spend time with each of your dogs in turn until you can control them alone; then take them out in different pairs, then as a bunch.
You need help from a competant trainer, to organise a plan and work through it.

Basic Training of the Puppy - Read here https://tr.im/p7n73
The new puppy is certainly one of the most adorable and cuddly creatures that has ever been created. It is the most natural thing in the world to shower it with love and affection. However, at the same time it is important to realize that if you want to have a well trained adult dog, you need to begin the training process right away. The dog, like its related ancestor, the wolf, is a pack animal. One of the features of a pack is that it has a single dominant leader. Your new puppy is going to want that leader to be you, but if you do not assume that role from the very beginning, the puppy’s instincts will push him to become the leader.
The most important thing to remember about training the puppy during its first six months of life is that it must see you as the leader of the family pack. The essential thing is gaining the trust and the respect of the puppy from the beginning. You will not do this by allowing the puppy to do whatever it wants to do whenever it wants to do it. On the other hand, a certain amount of patience is required. Most people err in their early training by going to extremes one way or the other. Although you need to begin the basic training process at once, you can not expect your dog to do too much at first. Basic obedience training is fine and should include simple commands like sit, stay, and come. Remember that trying to teach the dog advanced obedience techniques when it is a puppy is much like trying to teach a five year old child algebra.
It is also important to restrain from cruel or abusive treatment of the puppy. You can not beat obedience into your dog, and it certainly is not going to engender feeling of respect and trust. House breaking is an area where this usually becomes a problem because of the anger that is triggered when the puppy fails and creates a mess inside the home. Although this issue must be addressed without anger, it most be addressed. If you allow the puppy to eliminate inside the house, it will continue to do so as an adult dog. The same thing is true of other destructive or dangerous behavior such as chewing and biting. Do not expect the puppy to grow out of it. You are going to need to train the puppy out of it, but you should do so firmly but with a sense of play and fun using positive reinforcement and lots of love and praise for good behavior.

As I know once a dog gets into a car, it goes crazy, barks all the time, jumps up and down, and there's nothing that can make it calm down. Dogs just love the cars, and they want to show everyone that they are in one, this is why they are barking. Maybe, if you would take them in a basket, that you can close, or cover with something, so they could look out, wouldn't be so thrilled... (on the other hand, maybe they would be very sad about being in a car, but not able to look out. Dunno.)

your dogs are only protecting you
no one would break in
but if u wanted to keep your dogs quiet there is a anti bark collar u could get
its not a shock collar its acculy a spray whenever the dog barks it will spray and the dogs soon learn that if they bark it sprays
it is not harmfull to dogs but it will cost u a bit its priced at around £100 i would enjoy the extra security if u dont mind me saying :)
