Tiger Woods Injured In Crash Outside Home

CDA 455 · 11-27-2009, 12:36 PM

I wonder if alcohol and speed had anything to do with it?

Quote:

WINDERMERE, Fla. -- Golfer Tiger Woods was seriously injured when he hit a fire hydrant and then a tree outside of his Isleworth home early on Friday morning, officials said.

The Florida Highway Patrol said Woods was seriously injured and taken to Health Central Hospital. The Orange County Fire Department confirmed that a patient was taken to Health Central, but would not confirm that the patient was Woods.

Woods was driving a 2009 black Escalade, FHP said. He hit a fire hydrant outside of his home and a tree outside his neighbor's home.

FHP said the crash is still under investigation.

Seriously injured in an escalade? Had to have had some speed on that one.

Fox headline says "Charges Pending"

Whoops

All I could find

Professional golfer Tiger Woods was seriously injured in a car accident early this morning, the Florida Highway Patrol just reported.

Woods, 33, pulled out of his driveway in the Isleworth community about 2:25 a.m. when he struck a fire hydrant, and then drove into a tree at his neighbor's property, FHP reported.

Woods was transported to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee in serious condition, FHP said. No other information about his condition has been released.

A Health Central hospital employee said at 2:30 p.m. that Woods was not a patient. A hospital operator would not say if Woods had been treated and released.

FHP said the airbags in Woods' Cadillac Escalade did not deploy, which means the vehicle was traveling under 33 mph.

Orange County Fire Rescue received the call for aid at 2:28 a.m. Woods was transported from his Windermere-area neighborhood by the hospital's own ambulance.

FHP did not report the accident until just after 2 p.m. today. The agency said the crash remains under investigation and charges are pending.

According to this, "alcohol did not play a role in the crash."

Just heard part of a radio report that he wa hit while pulling out of his driveway. Maybe charges pending means the other driver.

Bonecruncher · 11-27-2009, 01:42 PM

So he should stick to driving Titleists?

Wow; the plot thickens!

Maybe he was T-boned or something.

Of course this is all speculation but would'nt Tiger be the one who may be charged for failure to yield right of way exiting private drive if he was hit while pulling out of his driveway?

CaryW · 11-27-2009, 01:59 PM

Well now the reports specify a single car crash so who knows.

Who really cares?

Yes, remember trust your Titleist.

s10er8 · 11-27-2009, 02:15 PM

Supposedly he has already been released and was never injured bad.

murse · 11-27-2009, 02:30 PM

I guarantee that he was wearing his Nike apparel in any photos taken.

cslimfu · 11-27-2009, 02:43 PM

I'll bet Fuzzy is thinking he had his face burried in a watermellon and couldn't see well enough to drive.
