First, let me say that at the time I knew it was going to be a pretty bad collision....and in fact I spent a couple months learning to walk again. So I dont think that screaming is an automatic reaction that everyone has...

A good point; actually I think you have nailed the reaction there. A scream is more when something happens like when someone makes you jump etc
Perhaps in this type of situation, the adrenaline kicks in to try and decide whether to 'fight or flight' as it were.

Quite interesting really, but maybe we're thinking too hard about such a small aspect?
