ESPN says he did it coming out of his driveway. Something is fishy here.

How fast would you have to be going to have 'serious' injuries come out of your driveway and hitting a neighbors tree?

Sounds like the Highway Patrol might be covering up something for Tiger.

ESPN reporting alcohol not involved... bull shit.
If alcohol wasn't involved, some other drug was as you have to be on something to get seriously injure pulling out of your driveway and just hitting a tree.
This story is so incredibly fishy.

Too early to speculate, but will be interesting to see why he left his own house at approximately 2:30 in the morning after T'giving. My sorry rear end was sound asleep.

The report (CBS) I just heard said he hit the fire hydrant and rolled into a tree in his neighbors yard. That doesn't make any sense. He would have to have been flying coming out of his driveway.

Latest break in from Yahoo, they too said the State Patrol said it was not alcohol related:

Yeah, he had to be drunk. His airbag didn't even go off so how do you get injured if you are going slow enough to not have the airbag go off?

That's what I was getting at earlier. That's the whole thing that makes this EXTREMELY fishy. If he was just driving down and road going 100mph I would understand. But 2:30am out of your driveway?? Sounds like he was headed to Taco Bell like the rest of America at that time.royal_k wrote: The report (CBS) I just heard said he hit the fire hydrant and rolled into a tree in his neighbors yard.

I believe they are saying that still because they don't have the evidence to back it just yet. If they come out and say it was and it really wasn't, Tiger has a nice lawsuit for the State Highway Patrol.Fab1b wrote: Latest break in from Yahoo, they too said the State Patrol said it was not alcohol related:

Alcohol wasn't involved and the airbags did not deploy (either faulty or he wasn't going fast enough ie 33 mph) per reports.

Maybe the car didn't have airbags, maybe Tiger can't afford a car with airbags, maybe he drives a 78 Pacer.tk421 wrote: Yeah, he had to be drunk. His airbag didn't even go off so how do you get injured if you are going slow enough to not have the airbag go off?

A bunch of tweets out there from sports writers and what not saying CNN is reporting the injuries are facial lacerations.

If he is released then there was some information that was really messed up.
