Tiger Woods was arrested and charged with driving under the influence after being involved in a rollover car crash in Florida on Friday, officials said. The 50-year-old crawled out of the car and was uninjured. His vehicle clipped a truck and flipped over while trying to overtake on a residential street near his home on Jupiter Island.
Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said Woods, who was arrested for driving under the influence in 2017, showed signs of "impairment" but subsequently passed a breathalyzer test for alcohol.
However, he was formally charged with driving under the influence after refusing to take a urine analysis test, Budensiek said.
"When it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, and so he's been charged with DUI, with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test in the crash," Budensiek said.
The sheriff said drug recognition experts who examined Woods at the scene believed Woods was impaired with "some kind of medication or drug."
However, under Florida law, Budensiek said, Woods was entitled to refuse a urine test.
"We will never get definitive results as to what he was impaired on at the time of the crash," Budensiek told reporters.
