i'm creating an animation.
as a car passes a tree very quickly, i want the tree to move in the wind created by the car.
if a car moves left to right past a tree. which way does the wind blow?
would the tree first sway left or right?

in the direction the car is driving

Sway right and then left.

It'd be sucked quickly in the direction the car was driving, then, slightly slower this time, rebound back into place accompanied by the gentle rustling of leaves.

yeah, it's not wind it's draught from the car moving which changes the pressure of the air as it moves by and draws objects closer the same way that cyclists 'draught' behind busses and semi-trailers.

Two trains leave different cities heading toward each other at different speeds. When and where do they meet?

first suction pulls tree to car as pression drops (sways left), then tree is released from suction swaying to the right, left, right etc until it stops

The car travels past the tree moving rapidly from left to right. The tree is sucked by the inertia, and bends to the right, then, because cars are bad, the tree dies due to massive toxification of its environment. It falls into the road and blocks the traffic. Other trees, seeing that this sacrifice has brought the cars to a standstill, all decide that they too will fall, for the good of the planet. This selfless act of scarifice inspires others to follow suit and the news of this astounding revolution spreads like, erm, wildfire.
Pretty soon tress all over the world are voluntarily uprooting themselves and laying down in the path of all the world's vehicles.
Its a bittersweet victory. Finally the cars have been stopped, but all the trees are dead, the world's oxygen goes bad, and species by species we all die.
Animate that. Go on. I DON'T CARE WHAT THE FUCKING BRIEF IS, ANIMATE IT.

one could also argue if the tree is being moved at all by a wee car passing by...

obvious, but have you tried looking for stock video?
