Default light issue, need help.

so i got in an accident yesterday and it wasnt much. just bent my bumper a little. but now my drivers side taillight doesnt come on unless i hit the brakes. the drivers front turn signals dont turn on unless i have the hazards on or the turn signals. the passengers side lights all work fine and the drivers side headlight, but the driving lights on the drivers side dont work. blown fuse? any other suggestions? thanks

not all of it but after i hit the guy, i turned off the jeep and thats when i noticed the lights werent working. i did at one time accidently cut the passengers side signal wires when i was installing my air horn but i soldered them all back together and they work fine now. all the lights still work when braking and signaling, just not when driving.
