Overview
- Tiger Woods, who crashed Friday near his Jupiter Island home, was arrested on misdemeanor counts of DUI, property damage, and refusing a lawful test after officers reported signs of impairment.
- Investigators say his Land Rover tried to pass a truck towing a pressure-cleaner trailer on a two-lane, 30 mph road and clipped the trailer, causing the SUV to roll onto its side; no injuries were reported.
- Woods recorded 0.00 on a breathalyzer but refused a urine test, and deputies said their focus turned to possible impairment from drugs or medications rather than alcohol.
- He was held in the Martin County jail for at least eight hours and released on bond early Saturday, and officials said the case remains active.
- Refusing a urine test can lead to an administrative driver’s license suspension under Florida law, and the incident adds to Woods’ history of crashes as questions linger about near-term playing plans such as the Masters.
