I'm glad you guys are ok. This could have ended much differently. Just last week I buried a guy after he was hit by a 23 year old that was drunk and high. He got a call from a friend asking for a ride home because he was drunk. This is something that he has done many times and is well known for with his group of friends. Call and ask for a ride and he's there. He had just dropped him off and was heading back home. While waiting at a red light, the 23 year old plowed into him going an estimated 80mph. (it's estimated because there were no skid marks) It pushed him across a 4 lane intersection where he stayed trapped inside his car while it burned to the ground. The drunk driver walked away with a scratch on his forehead. This gentleman was a husband and father of 2. He was an assistant coach on a local highschool football team. Many players attended his funeral. I hope every one of them remember that day if they ever find themselves drinking at a party. Even if they call for a designated driver, that driver is still at risk.
