– On the 3rd (local time), the Associated Press reported that the office of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office in the United States was analyzing the data on the black box mounted on the Genesis SUV GV80, which had a rollover accident.

Woods suffered a car rollover accident on the downhill curve of Los Angeles County on the 23rd of last month. Woods was moved to the emergency room, but his leg was severely injured, making his life as a golf player at stake.

At that time, Woods visited Los Angeles as the organizer of the Genesis Invitational Tournament of the United States Pro Golf (PGA) held by Hyundai Motor Company, and borrowed the GV80 from Hyundai Motor Company during his stay in LA.

The police believe that there was no drunk driving or speeding at the time of the accident.

– Recently, some foreign media, such as USA Today and Fox News, cited vehicle forensics experts, and reported that Woods may have fallen asleep at the time of the accident.

It is not mandatory to install a car black box in the United States. However, since the GV80 released in January last year is a model with safety specifications, it is expected that more detailed information will be provided in the black box.

The Associated Press said, “Hyundai’s luxury brand GV80 will be equipped with a new version of the black box. This black box has valuable treasure data for the authorities to investigate.”
