The way I would handle this is to carry treats & train focus. The youth of the household was overly enthusiastic about vehicles for quite some time. I worked with her, asking for a sit & eye contact when a vehicle approached on our walks. Now for the last 6 months or longer (shes 1 yo very soon) she either ignors the traffic completely or comes to me making eye contact. Her interest in cats is deminishing, too. If more people would leash their dogs, we'd get on that wagon with the same results.
No choke, no prong - just a flat collar. No real corrections just redirection, folks. It works better.
