Tiger Woods finds himself in a precarious situation once again. Following a rollover accident, the golf legend is now facing not only a DUI charge but also a citation for careless driving. The non-criminal citation comes with a $163 fine and was issued in Martin County. While it’s bad news for Woods, he admits that the incident occurred because he “looked down” at his phone, leaving us all to wonder how many other drivers share the same story.
During his interaction with officers, Woods failed multiple sobriety tests and even mentioned using prescription medication earlier that day. It gets murkier, though—police later found hydrocodone pills when they searched him. Now, Tiger’s facing two misdemeanor charges, which could complicate things as he enters the courtroom on May 5. Hopefully, he’ll manage to back on course soon—unless he’s aiming for a career change to the pot hole tour!
