exhaust issue

Ok, well I was driving along today, a car made a sudden turn i swerved to avoid, and my right rear tire dropped into a drainage ditch, knock my exhaust more towards the passenger side ie skewed it right, it is now half wedged in my bumper, and half the out let is still exposed, i went under the car to look of course, and one of the bolts threads had snapped, the second rubber hangers bolt on the left ie driver side, snapped at the thread, right at metal mount where its connected, theres no backend to get it off, and its still skewed, so im 99% sure the other bolt/bolts are either bent or broken or hanging on by a thread, so my questions aew, is it drivable? (ive got a pretty good distance to a shop), if im getting a new rear bumper ie jdm should i care for now untill i get it in the air and mounted correctly?, or should I leave it where it is, and get it flatbeded to a shop i trust on monday? and not drive it at all

It should be fine. Just make sure the reost of your exhaust is connected fine - cat, downpipe, etc. Its one piece so hopefully it didn't tweak it all the way up. If you need new hangers get some Kartboy solid ones and if you need new nuts/bolts for your exhaust - www.nutsandbolts.com
