I have this theory that drunk people in accidents have less control of their bodies during an accident and therefore cannot sufficiently brace or anticipate the upcoming impact leading to less severe injuries.

As a paramedic I believe there’s some truth here. Same with texting and driving not realizing you’re about to hit someone. Drunk or texting drivers seem to survive much more likely than who they hit. I guess they are relaxed state or have no idea of impending impact and don’t brace for it
