    The sound of a car speeding.

    Then a low muffled thud, resonating like a really bassy gong throughout the area.

    Piercing sirens from several police cars, joined shortly in a couple of minutes by an ambulance.

    Followed by an eerie silence somehow when the EMTs pull a blanket over someone pulled from a totaled car.

    Next day the sound of several frustrated drivers, when the repair crew has closed most of a busy intersection.

    You forgot the "oof" as the impact knocks the air, blood, guts and whatever else out of the poor bugger in the car.

    The fact that it sound like a thud instead of a crash is kinda scary

    We bicyclists see them way more often than we'd like.

    often a loud, dull crump followed by a period of silence....
    before the hysterics start.

    usually a screetch of locked brakes and tires against the pavement before the crunch
