I was behind two cars on the freeway, one in lane 1 and one in lane 3. They both decided to merge into the center lane at the same time. I remember the sound distinctly because it was so different than I expected. It sounded like two large, empty cardboard boxes hitting each other. No screeching tires or glass breaking sound (both windshields and side windows broke, but remained intact). It was very unexciting.

yea precisely. Sound design is less about how it really sounds, but more about how you think it should sound + some flair to make it a show.

Fun fact! sometimes in movies when there's a big fire sound designers will put animal roars into the fire sounds to add an extra layer of fear you don't even realise your body is going to react to
