Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry...
MOMENTUM = mass x velocity, force is mass x acceleration.
However, to expand on your (very valid) point with some back-of-a-fag-packet maths:
For a 44 ton lorry moving at a steady velocity of 56mph (around 25 metres per second), momentum = 44 000 x 25 = 902 000 kgm/s.
The force required to stop a moving object is proportional to and in the opposite direction to its momentum (Newton's second law), and if the mass is constant we can assume that this force F = change in momentum / time taken to decelerate.
In a crash, let's (generously) say that this truck comes to a stop in 2 seconds having collided with a stationary vehicle; that is 451 000 Newtons of force or thereabouts.
Now consider that a femur can be broken with around 4000 Newtons of force, and a skull can be crushed with as little as 2000 Newtons.
Scary, isn't it?
