Tiger Woods Live Story from Press Conference
A week before the Masters, police in Los Angeles disclosed fresh information on Tiger Woods' traumatic vehicle accident, which occurred in late February and left him in critical condition. Police claimed on Wednesday that excessive speed was to blame for Woods' collision, and they still have no plans to prosecute him with a moving violation or DUI.
During a press conference, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department authorities revealed that Woods was going between 84 and 87 mph in a 45-mph zone when his Genesis SUV ploughed into and leapt over a median.

Due to his injuries, a field sobriety test wouldn't be suitable, Power added.

Villanueva: "Some allege he got special or preferential treatment." "False. No impairment. His safety was our top priority at the accident scene. Here, you must ensure the patient's survival and medical treatment.
