y does the car sway side to side?

whenever i go over a slight or big bump my car tends to sway side to side im just thinking its the alignment but also my tires are pretty worn out. any idears?

also i hear noise coming from the rear of the car like its sounds like the suspensions are messed up cause its like rapid thud noises cant exactlly explain it but there is just noise coming from them whenever going over bumps. any ideas here too?

yeah, if you push down on the corner of each rear bumper, and let go, if it back bounces more than once, you probably need to replace the struct
