Default steering issue

okay so last night i was leaving a friends house and i lost control and hit a curb with the front passenger side going about 10-15mph. i got some curb rash and shattered my front lip. now while going straight the steering wheel is turned quite a bit to the right, and when i hit bump the steering wheel jerks. i honestly shouldnt be driving it cause its kinda scary.

any idea what issue this could be? any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!

remove the tire and look for damage. You'll see something bent or broken, replace and realign.

Something is bent or broken. Most likely your steering tie-rod. Either that or it just messed up the alignment.
