But in every movie, when the driver gets killed, their foot ALWAYS fully depresses the accelerator to the floor; I just saw it last night watching part of True Lies. Hollywood wouldn't lie--so clearly the same thing probably happens if you fall asleep.

In Armageddon, didn't Bruce Willis skid a space shuttle onto an asteroid making lots of skidding noises?

Again did everybody see this?
The data showed that Woods had hit the accelerator throughout the crash, and that the pressure applied to the pedal was 99 percent. Powers said he believed that Woods inadvertently hit the accelerator while trying to brake.
Tiger was in a car he does not own and did not have a lot of experience driving much. They said He had on a Seat Belt, was Not on the Phone. There is a Video a few mins before that shows he was behind another car and not really going that fast. LAPD did not do anything because they saw no indication of any substances affecting him. If this was one of us, and/or God Forbid one of our Family Members we loved, I would hope the unsupported actually opposite fact accusations would not be being said as they are here. Jeeeeeeze! Guess some are just going to continue to ignore what we know to make accusations about a Human being who suffered some very serious injuries by accident. Sad. Really Sad some post here.

so let’s focus on the other parts of the Sheriff’s report.
“Tiger Woods was speeding when he crashed his sport-utility vehicle in February, reaching speeds of more than 80 m.p.h. in a 45 m.p.h. zone on winding road near Los Angeles, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva.Villanueva said Woods was traveling between 84 and 87 miles per hour when he lost control, crossing over a median and hitting the curb on the opposite of the road. The vehicle struck a tree at an estimated 75 m.p.h. and was sent airborne, eventually stopping in some brush.
“The primary causal factor for this traffic collision was driving at a speed unsafe for the road conditions and the inability to negotiate the curve of the roadway,” said Villanueva.”
He was driving at around 85mph in a 45mph zone.
There’s no reason to look beyond that, and certainly no need to look for excuses.
This was exactly what it looks like. Self inflicted idiocy.

I hope, for Tiger's sake (and I am thankful for him that he survived) that he has finally learned his lesson this time, after wrecking several different vehicles...and, if he can get any insurance at all after this incident (and is able to drive), will do so more sensibly in the future.

We may have to get the full-story from Tiger himself, but he (supposedly) was late for a golfing-instruction-class (he is an instructor), and was trying to make up for lost time on the road.

I doubt Tiger Woods is afraid of being late for anything lol. People wait.

The road is describe as giving many trouble. There is a blind decline that comes up real fast. Who does not maybe sometimes go 58 in a 45 sometimes? So you are going over the speed limit, very heavy SUV steep down hill. You make a mistake and there you are. Could happen to anyone. Even someone very Young, or very Old in that Heavy of a SVU that's Top heavy no less. Ppl crash on flat dry roads everyday. Like I said before, you don't have to be ill-responsible or a retard to make a mistake. Who does not?

Well, that's why I said earlier that we need to get the story directly from him. I have not (yet) heard it.....only the rumor from the media that he was late to see a golfing-student. It may or may not turn out to be fake news.

Case closed.
If it were anyone else article would read very different and 100% they'd be looking to find their fault.
With anyone else the article would read "Wreckless man dangerously..." Then proceed to speculate without any evidence of all his wrong doings. DUI, etc.
But with a celebrity "Must not have been his fault somehow..."

That was what I was saying. I have driven in the Mountains before many times. Use to ride a Kawi zx9 every weekend in the Mountains. Down hill you better be below speed, set up already for the next 3 or more turns, or in the right Apex, or you will crash. Going up hill is one thing. Coming down even the slightest bit aggressive, not even hard can get you in trouble really quick carrying down gravity speed at a very fast rapid speed that you did not input yourself, before you know it. That was a big Heavy SUV. Not a Porsche SUV either. Would not take a nano second of Human error to get into lots of trouble. Even Pro Race Car Drivers with Tons of experience on a known Track crash by themselves.
