You can bend it all back with $$$$, by mainly buying new derailleur, hanger, chain maybe?, on a good note the frame looks okay, hanger did it’s job.Â

If it was the driver’s fault, they should be responsible for paying for the repair service and parts. If they don’t want to you can file a claim through their insurance.

Ex shop tech here, I’ve seen this exact damage 100s of times. Needs a new hanger (good news is it’s the most common type of hanger you’ll get one in any shop) and yes you could argue why not try bend it back, 9 out of 10 times they will simply snap if you try and bend back this sort of damage. Also definitely needs a new derailleur (can’t bend that back as it’s been absolutely mangled) , and most likely a new chain as I’ll guess there’s a bent link somewhere. When hanger was replaced before they should have made sure your gears were indexed when it was installed.
