I can't believe the parents were dumb enough to bring her back before her blood alcohol could drop. They will lose their home and everything else they own. Insurance will not pay if alcohol is involved, thanks to Mother's Against Drunk Drivers. If she is a minor the parents are really going to regret this.
What you should do is call 911 and report the accident and hide until your BAL comes down. Sorry but that is the way it is.
Of course, you could always drive sober and stop texting and not have these problems. But while I would beat the tar out of my kid I would not haul her back to the scene.
