He was heading southbound — in the opposite direction of his $83 million waterfront home and his restaurant The Woods, local reports said.
The 14-time major champion, who was the world’s No. 1 golfer longer than anyone else, was driving a 2015 Mercedes-Benz “erratically, all over the road” when he was stopped, law-enforcement sources told TMZ.
Woods grew “arrogant” during the stop and refused to take a Breathalyzer test, which is grounds for an automatic arrest.
The site also reported that his reps repeatedly called the Jupiter Police Department to find out if the cop was wearing a body camera.

5:00 PM PT -- Tiger just released a statement ... "I understand the severity of what I did and I take full responsibility for my actions. I want the public to know that alcohol was not involved. What happened was an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications. I didn't realize the mix of medications affected me so strongly."
Woods goes on ... "I would like to apologize with all my heart to my family, friends, and the fans. I expect more from myself, too. I will do everything in my power to ensure this never happens again.
I fully cooperated with law enforcement, and I would like to personally thank the representatives of the Jupiter Police Dept. and the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office for their professionalism."
1:00 PM PT -- We've learned Tiger's girlfriend, Kristin Smith, learned about the arrest while shopping at a Neiman Marcus store in Dallas. Someone called her and, according to several eyewitnesses, "she went crazy" and said "I knew it, I knew it." We're told she began crying, then bought $5k worth of merchandise and left.

I would think the police car had a dash cam at least. If he did act really arrogant they are probably hoping it wasn't caught on tape.
Maybe he was just high on pills after all. The news lied about him refusing a breathalyzer at the station I guess.
