Really scared

Last night, I had my first really major low where I was unaware of what was going on. I dropped my girlfriend off at her house and she could tell that I was acting a little strangely so she told me to come in and she gave me 2 little fun size pieces of chocolate. I'm guessing 5 carbs apiece. Then, I left and I only remember pieces of my drive home, like every 5 minutes I remember a glimpse of what happened. Then, I remember I was headed into a curb and swerved at the last second and hit my front right tire against it pretty hard. Then, as I made my way back home, I don't remember much and I took a route home that I have never driven on. Also, it was a stickshift so I was incredibly surprised that I didn't have any trouble shifting or stalling out with this extreme low. When I got home, I had about 80 carbs and my blood sugar rose to 175. I just hope something like this never happens again.
