The man whom Tiger Woods hit in a car crash during his DUI arrest has hired a lawyer.

Last week, Woods crashed into a truck backing out of his driveway before getting arrested for suspicion of DUI when he failed several sobriety tests and refused to take a urinalysis test.

Deputies quickly observed Tiger appeared impaired and lethargic. They conducted an alcohol test and it registered 0.00%. Sheriff John Budensiek said, during the news conference, he believes Tiger was not under the influence of alcohol, but rather medication.

Tiger was placed under arrest and taken to the station, where he refused a urine test. He was booked on DUI and refusal to submit to the urinalysis.

The driver of the pickup truck tried to turn into a driveway, but the Range Rover was going at such a high speed that the pickup truck could not fully enter the driveway, and Tiger clipped that vehicle, causing the Range Rover to flip over on the driver’s side.

According to TMZ, the man whom Woods crashed into has hired a personal injury attorney to represent him.

The notice of appearance and invocation of rights were filed in Florida on Thursday … showing Jeromy Bullard will be represented by Jason Fagnano, a personal injury attorney who specializes in auto, truck, motorcycle, bicycle and pedestrian accidents.

According to the report, the damage done to his rig was around $5,000.

Woods is facing DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test … and was hit with a careless driving citation as well.

Woods is currently overseas seeking treatment and will likely not face any legal issues until he gets back from rehab.
