    We’re Not Slapping Reckless Driving Charge On Tiger Woods


     

    US golf superstar, Tiger Woods, will not be charged for reckless driving,  a Los Angeles County Sheriff, Alex Villanueva, has told journalists. 

    It would be recalled that on Tuesday morning, February 23, 2021, Woods had a leading to he suffering multiple leg injuries and subsequently undergoing surgery.

    But addressing the media, the Sheriff says “We’re hoping obviously there’s going to be… this black box and we’ll have some information about the speed. It may be a factor in this accident.”

    “A reckless driving charge has a lot of elements into it, this is purely an accident,” according to him.

    He said the most Woods could face would be a low-level offense known as an infraction if investigators conclude that he was not paying attention or speeding.

    “There’ll be a cause of it, and there’ll be a vehicle code attached to the cause, if it’s inattentive driving whatever the case may be.

    “But that’s an infraction and a reckless driving is actually more than an infraction. That’s a misdemeanor crime that has a lot of elements attached to it and there’s nothing, nothing like that,” Mr Villanueva said.
