In Florida they must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, who the driver was, that person was in actual physical control of the vehicle and the driver was impaired by alcohol or drugs.

The burden in the prosecution of a criminal activity is that the prosecution must prove its case "beyond a reasonable doubt". Stop posting on the internet and seek counsel regarding how to react when the authorities contact you.
