Use several getin waypoints, one attached to each vehicle that you want the group to use.     So for 8 men use 4 motorbikes with a getin waypoint on each bike.   If you wanted them to use more than 4 bikes put gamelogics in some of the passengers seats.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

Yes, what Marvin means is the scripting command assignAsDriver... ::)

Not an radio transmitted order...

As Marvin already explained:
