Tiger Woods Receives Five-Year Driving Ban After Florida Crash

Famous golfer Tiger Woods went to a Florida court on Wednesday. He agreed to a charge of reckless driving. This agreement helped him because the state reduced his original charge. Now, he cannot drive a car for five years. The court suspended his license. He also paid a fine of one thousand dollars for reckless driving. He paid another fine because he refused a police test. In total, he paid over two thousand dollars in fines and court costs.

The fifty-year-old golfer arrived at the courthouse in a black SUV. He wore a dark suit and a tie. His girlfriend, Vanessa Trump, walked with him. Many reporters asked questions, but the couple did not say anything.

The charges came from a car crash on March 27, 2026. The crash happened on Jupiter Island. Woods drove a Land Rover on a narrow road. He wanted to pass a slow truck. He drove very fast, so his car hit a trailer. After that, the car rolled over on its side. Woods was alone in the vehicle. He climbed out of the passenger side, and he did not have any injuries.

Police officers tested him at the scene. He did not have alcohol in his body, but he refused a urine test. He told officers about his medicines. He took pills for blood pressure, cholesterol, and pain. He also said some strange things. He talked about fifteen drones with cameras. Then, he said he talked to the president.

After the crash, Woods decided to stop playing golf. He went to a special health clinic. He wanted to focus on his health.
