Default do i need an alignment?

rear ended somebody earlier today going about 10 miles an hour.

do i need an alignment? the front tires kinda look like they have -toe and passanger side front seems to have alittle more -camber than the driver's side.

long story short, we were at the stop sign at an off ramp and the guy goes after stopping. so i turn to see if there is traffic and i just blipped the gas to see pass the cars parked on the street and PLOW! he stopped for no fuoking reason!.

You shouldn't . Your wheels didn't take any sort of lateral force. Does it still drive straight? That will give your answer.

still drives straight. hopefully its still good. i will see whats up after work tomorrow.

the speedo and the tach (stock) will not be effected right? i think im just being paranoid but it seems to be off, can it be the cause?

also my bumper support is all fuoked from preivious owner of the car and is only held on by two bolts and it isnt sitting flush on the radiator support. will that effect the handling? turning seems to have a slight delay now or im just imagining it.
