Jigga Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 There's a little more info here.Among the nuggets:[Woods] 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.FHP said the airbags in Woods' Cadillac Escalade did not deploy, which means the vehicle was traveling under 33 mph.

floydnimrod Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 the espn.com article has been updated to say that his airbags did not deploy because the vehicle was probably traveling under 33 miles per house, which I fugred since he was backing out of his house. I'm wondering what could have happened, could the tree have fallen on his SUV, or could it have flipped?

bterreson Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I'm just going to put this one on the table:"[Woods] struck a fire hydrant, and then drove into a tree at his neighbor's property, FHP reported."What are the chances he was drunk?Regardless, I hope he gets well soon.

STL FANATIC Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Good luck to Tiger Woods as well as the untold thousands of other people who were also involved in serious car accidents today.Echo that. I don't post it on a message board, but I try to think of more than just the people I know of even though I'm rarely successful at it.

Brave-Bird 08 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I have a feeling there was a domestic dispute that reporters kind of failed on covering up. Let's take a look at the details shall we??- Woods crashed at 2 in the morning- They say it was not alcohol induced, and he was traveling less than 33 mph. - They say charges are pending?? charges on what??...I wonder if the wifey didnt hurt him... where else would he have been going at 2 in the morning...obviously in a rage since he was not drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Sounds to me like the media is making a mountain out of a mole hill on this one. I hope so.

tBBP Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Just heard about this on the Michael Baisden show not too long ago...from the time I heard the initial report up until the time of this posting, all these details have come out (couldn't have been but about a 20- or 25-minute difference).Hope it's nothing serious...and oh by the way, one does not have to be traveling that fast to have serious injuries in a car crash. Fifteen mph is really about all it takes (I should know). Hope Tiger pulls through okay--and, as was mentioned above, the untold others out there who've suffered a similar predicament. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
