It is surprising that a bat hit you hard on the face (while you were driving) and you didn't fall down ! It might not be a bat at all. In such cases the only worry and apprehension is about Rabies prophylaxis. Please consult a General Physician in your area for a physical examination so that he can examine you minutely and look for any abrasion on the skin. Then further management can be planned.
