Drunken Fools

I honestly feel like I had a LD on an early sleep cycle but completely forgot what it was about.
I was in my neighborhood, the next street over from where I live. I think I was just out for a walk or something. Rather typical of my dreams, it was foggy/overcast and all of the plants looked very green and alive.
The first thing that I remember happening was seeing a car with a crashed up front driving recklessly down the subdivision street. The windows were open and I could hear people yelling and cheering.
The person driving was someone from my neighborhood. We'll call him B. I could tell by the expression on his face that he was completely wasted. There were a bunch of beer cans on the dashboard.
Wait... his face. Yeah he was driving right at me. I can't recall what color car he was driving, it seemed to change. But it was like a full size van or a hummer; something big.
He tried to run me over and I jumped out of the way. I thought maybe he was just going to pass me by and carry on with being drunk. But he turned around. Everyone in the car had started cheering for him to run me over.
There were a couple of boulders in the front lawn of one house. (They are not there IWL. I walked and checked this morning). I figured by standing in front of one I could trick him into crashing the car into one. It actually worked. The hood of the car came off and I could see the engine inside. But he turned around and he kept trying to run me over.
I must have been at least a little bit lucid because I wasn't at all scare of what was going on. I know after a few more tries at hitting me, I began jumping over the car as it drove near me, rather than jumping out of the way. I took note of how floaty things seemed.
I continued to jump around. Things were getting so floaty I was borderline flying. I think at this point they decided to put a bounty on my underwear. They stopped the car and a horde of drunken adolescents got out, including B. Also among the group was a character that I created as a joke between me and some of my friends; a boy named Swagbag Stanely. (Meant to make fun of online gamers and the pesky airhead boys from school.)
I started running from them. There was this big beautiful tree (growing in the middle of the road.) Like a willow tree or something similar, with lots of vine-like branches hanging down from it. I grabbed on to one of the branches (I didn't think it would support my weight, and swung around.)
I realized that this was pointless as I was just going to end up swinging right back into the crowd of people that wanted to get me. I tried to change my momentum to wrap around the other side of the tree, and (because semi-lucid dream) it worked. I was able to propel myself along. The vine got caught up on the inside of the tree and I jumped off onto a branch about halfway up the tree.
The branch was wobbly. I crawled in closer to the trunk of the tree, where I was eventually able to stand up. Swagbag Stanely. (I'm sorry, it's hard to reference this character in a serious situation.) started climbing up a tree. He was still acting drunk, but he had a switchblade knife, and everyone was cheering him on.
I started shaking the branch he was on, but he was climbing closer to me. He was getting closer to me and moved in to lunge. I knew he was beyond reason so I did the only logical thing I could do. Put my right foot to his manhood as hard as I could. He fell out of the tree. I lost my balance too, and fell off, but caught myself on a lower branch.
I looked down and saw that he had split his head open, and was bleeding quite a lot. All of the drunken people started to come to and realized what was happening. One of the moms, or just some random middle aged woman showed up and asked what was going on.
The dream started to fade into a courtroom scene where I was re-counting the story. I lost it around here and woke up.
I tried to WBTB from this. It was only 6:00am. I figured I could. I didn't have any luck falling asleep though.
