Nobody was injured in the crash, but Woods had to crawl out of the passenger door to free himself. He passed a breathalyser test but refused a urinalysis test for other drugs, according to Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek.
In the arrest affidavit, an officer wrote Woods was “sweating profusely”, his pupils were “extremely dilated” and his movements were “lethargic and slow”.
In the video, Woods, who is wearing a blue polo shirt, shorts and dark sunglasses, is seen being handcuffed as officers question him.
He is told they suspect his “normal faculties are impaired” by an “unknown substance”. Authorities then find two white pills, which were identified as hydrocodone – an opioid used to treat pain – in his pocket.
Woods, who remains still while officers search him, is asked does he have anything else on his person, to which he replies he does not.
On Wednesday, it was announced that Woods had turned down the role of United States Ryder Cup captain when the biennial tournament takes place in Ireland in 2027.
