It happened at two o'clock eastern today I think. That's why I posted. Bizarre if he was in another one after he almost died.

Just saw it on the news. I lost all respect for him when he cheated on his wife years ago. Oh, plus he’s a maga trumper. They said he’s sitting in jail right now because he refused a urinalysis test.

He was pissed off and on pain drugs while driving like a maniac. If this is his fault again it’s time he learns a lesson and consider others. And yes, I’m assuming it’s his fault because I’m petty like that.

Then drove like a bat out of hell trying to get to the Rivera golf course I believe. Which wasn’t very close.

They also used the word "involved" in a rollover crash. They said that neither his manage nor law enforcement returned their request for more information.

Since he has previous injuries, any accident will probably exacerbate them.

Apparently, he had to crawl out of the passenger side. It looks like he wasn't driving all that fast. Driving impaired however.

I heard the police say he was trying to pass another vehicle on a two lane road (which had double yellow lines-no passing) and was speeding.

Maybe the truck was trying to get out of the way of the Range Rover

The investigation determined that the pickup truck was attempting to turn into a driveway along Beach Road, and slowed to make the turn. The driver of the pickup truck observed a Range Rover closing at high speed, and attempted to get off the road, but was unable to do so because of the narrowness of the residential street. The Range Rover clipped the back end of the trailer and landed on the driver’s side.

Nobody got hurt, thankfully.
But, he seems to be in self-destruct mode.
If he was going to drink, why not hire a driver? He's a billionaire for goodness sake.
My favorite golfer ever, but he's making it hard to root for him.

No alcohol was detected during the breathalyzer test (or whatever they use). But they asked for a urine sample at the station since the officers suspected he was impaired. Woods refused. Testing following his previous rollover apparently showed he had a pharmacy of drugs in him.

I didn’t know you could refuse to be tested. It would seem to be hard to prove impairment without physical evidence. So who knows where this will go.

51. Can they get a warrant for blood and urine?
Fri Mar 27, 2026, 08:12 PM

I know he took a breathalyzer, but in Texas if you refuse a breathalyzer, you could be hauled off to jail and then you're forced. I would assume the same applies to other tests. Since Woods was arrested, I assume he will be booked and tested.

The advantage of refusing a test, is that it delays the testing results, which can lower the amt in your system.


However, refusing the breathalyzer doesn’t mean you’re in the clear. Law enforcement will often obtain a search warrant for a blood sample, and if they do, they’ll get your BAC anyway.

If he wants to kill himself because of the screaming devils in his brain oh well.
As long as he doesn’t hurt or kill others fine by me.

I have friends who dealt with Mr. Woods when he was in Columbus OH for a golf
tournament years ago… before his wife put an 8 iron through his rear window … and
the stories were not pretty.
