I've heard (maybe you can confirm or correct this) that many times the drunk driver is so "relaxed" that he is less injured while the sober person he hits is wide awake and frantically trying to do something to avoid the accident and so is tensed up and likely to be more seriously injured . . .

I know this has happened second-hand; I know people that were practically unscratched after a very bad wreck. I'm not going to post the alcohol ones, but they do happen.
This summer a young man's car was hit by a truck (not alcohol related, just a sunny day accident); people getting to the car were sure no one was alive. He was trapped but practically unhurt. He had a cat in a carrier; the carrier was mangled but the cat was out of it in great health. (The man swore the cat was in the carrier, said it wouldn't travel any other way).
There are far too many that are not as fortunate.
