The accident led to his arrest on charges of driving under the influence.<\/p>\n<p>It occurred around 2:00 p.m. when Woods reportedly attempted to overtake a pickup truck at high speed on a narrow two-lane road. His vehicle clipped the truck\u2019s trailer, causing the SUV to flip onto its side and slide a significant distance. While Woods was able to crawl out of the vehicle unassisted and both drivers remained uninjured, the Martin County Sheriff\u2019s Office reported that Woods appeared \u201clethargic\u201d and showed clear signs of impairment at the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Although he passed a breathalyzer test with a 0.00% alcohol reading, Woods refused to submit to a urine test, resulting in a misdemeanor charge for refusal to submit to a lawful test alongside DUI and property damage.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities reported that no drugs were found in the vehicle, and his impairment was likely caused by medication. Following Florida state law, Woods was held for eight hours at the Martin County Jail before being released.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-woods-has-had-several-car-accidents\">WOODS HAS HAD SEVERAL CAR ACCIDENTS<\/h2>\n<p>This accident is the latest example of Woods\u2019 troubling history with vehicles, coming almost exactly five years after his devastating 2021 crash in California. It also casts immediate and serious doubt on his ability to participate in the 2026 Masters, which is less than two weeks away.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Druski's Erica Kirk Skit Has Everyone Losing It\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MFwiXT4BEQk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tiger Woods refuses to hire a personal driver. \u200bPEOPLE reported that a source close to the golf legend shared why&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14044,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,6],"tags":[10,9],"class_list":["post-6847","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-rss","tag-culture","tag-hip-hop"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6847","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14044"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6847"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6847\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6847"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6847"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/westcoastaftershock.com\/wca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
