Tiger Woods was speeding when he crashed his SUV in February, which left the 45-year-old golf legend with serious injuries, authorities said Wednesday. His vehicle was traveling between 84 and 87 mph in an area outside Los Angeles with a 45 mph speed limit, Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva said in a news conference.
"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," Villanueva said. On February 23, Woods struck a median around 7 a.m. local time in Rolling Hills Estates. His vehicle went off of the road, hit a tree and rolled over in an area known for accidents. Woods spent weeks in the hospital after undergoing surgery and is now recovering at home.Just days ago, invasive Joro spiders sent New Yorkers into a frenzy amid news that the large arachnids that can soar with the winds are headed for the Big Apple.
