Foreign media reported that Tiger Woods, who was severely injured in a car rollover accident last month, did not step on the brakes at the time of the accident and only stepped on the accelerator pedal (accelerator) until the end.

On the 21st (local time), American entertainment media TMZ quoted a source such as the LA County Sheriff’s Office, which is investigating the accident vehicle in Woods, saying, “There are some problems while looking at a lot of evidence centering on the vehicle, the accident site, and the black box data. I found evidence that there is,” he reported.

He added, “There is no trace of Woods stepping on the brakes at the time of the accident.”

The media also pointed out that there were loopholes in the investigation of the accident, such as listening to the first sheriff’s words that the police officers had’there is no evidence of a disability in driving (there is no evidence of drinking alcohol)’ and did not conduct alcohol or drug tests. Woods wakes up after surgery and can’t even remember whether he was driving.

Meanwhile, Woods, who had a car accident while driving a Hyundai Motor Company Genesis GV80 SUV in California at 7:12 am on the 23rd of last month, suffered a major injury due to a composite leg fracture in an overturn accident. After surgery, he is currently recovering at home, and the LA County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the exact cause of the accident based on the black box of the accident vehicle.
