On your way home you were T-boned by a drunk driver doing in an excess of 150 miles an hour( this is what was told to your family judging by the force of impact and the skid marks on the road. The force was enough to pull the seat belt from where it was anchored to the floor and turn you completely around in your seat. When they found you you were facing the back of the vehicle your neck resting on the back of your seat and the passenger side of the car had been pushed all the way in to your side of the car. The officer that spoke to your family also said that charges were pending against you and that is what usually happened in cases like that where the person was not expected to make it. Your family found out the first officer on scene was a family member of the man who hit you, but still none of that can bring you back.)
