Friday @ 5:30AM on my way to work, I was driving across an intersection of highway 23, as i was crossing a drunken 23 year old traveling at highway speeds ran a red light and i got T-boned...... I guess I'm just lucky to have walked away from this

Glad you are alive and able to walk away. Any pictures of the moron's car that hit you? What were they driving?
