Legal Answer
If it was the parents car and you could prove that he had parents permission to use the car, and that they knew or should have known that he would drive drunk or was not safe to drive.

Legal Answer
Couple things: (1) if the parents KNEW he was highly likely to be drunk while driving, there may be a claim for negligent entrustment, and then you could prevail. (2) you may be entitled to claim under YOUR insurance policy. Feel free to call our offices to discuss: 267.639.3105.
