Unless you are living in a dark cave somewhere in Tennessee or Southern Utah, you probably are aware that golfing legend Tiger Woods, the most successful athlete in the history of modern sports, had a little one-car automobile accident last week in the wee early morning hours not far from his home.
According to Woods' agent, Mark Steinberg, Florida law requires the driver of a vehicle involved in an accident to provide the police his driver's license, the registration for his vehicle, and proof of insurance.
And Tiger has decided that that is all he is going to give the police and the press. This is probably the backlash from the revelation in the tabloids that Tiger has been seen in the presence of a New York party girl. It is noteworthy that the accident investigation has already determined that Tiger was travelling away from his house when the accident occurred, not far from his home.
Tiger has decided he is not going to give the police, and thereby, the press and paparazzi, any details that would further compromise his family situation. One can only guess why Tiger was driving from his home, apparently out of control, in the middle of the night, but not under the influence of alcohol or medications. And it's going to stay that way. Tiger has no intention of feeding the ravenous beast any salacious tidbits. And if he is interviewed by the police, we darn well know that six hours later that the information would be on the front page of every tabloid from LA to London.
Tiger will be cited, probably with something like "failure to maintain control of a motor vehicle" and pay his fine. He'll then call up GM and ask them to ship them another Cadillac CTS-V and he'll knock a few thousand off the fee for the next commercial he does for Buick.
America (and the world), get over it. Tiger's private life and foibles is none of your business, and his family problems (if there are any, that's only alleged) should be allowed to be worked out in private.
