Most important, you and your brother weren't seriously injured. The drunk/drugged up woman that hit you didn't get away, and her efforts to leave, fight, and then attempt to run from the police will assure they probably throw every charge they can think of at her.

It's possible they're looking at all the costs, including a rental for several months while the vehicle sits awaiting parts to arrive.
