Tiger Woods arrested for DUI… but with a 0.00 breathalyzer?

In this podcast episode of Layman’s Law School, we break down the real legal issues behind the latest allegations involving Tiger Woods and explain how you can still be charged with DUI even when alcohol isn’t involved.

We walk through the facts of the case, the bodycam footage, and the charges stemming from a crash in Jupiter, Florida. Then we dig into the law: what counts as “impairment,” how prescription drugs factor into DUI cases, and what prosecutors can (and can’t) access from your private medical records.

We also answer the practical questions:

– Should you ever take a field sobriety test?

– What happens if you refuse a chemical test?

– Can your past DUI be used against you?

– Why would someone go to rehab if they’re pleading not guilty?

Whether you’re following the Tiger Woods case or just want to understand your rights, this episode breaks it all down in plain English.

Tell us in the comments what YOU thought about Woods' latest legal troubles.

Welcome back to the Layman's Law School podcast — and this episode is a little different.

It’s Lindsey’s birthday, which means she’s in charge (which honestly isn't much different than most episodes!) But this time, the guys had no idea what was coming… and that’s how we ended up with Lindsey’s Birthday Bar Exam.

In this episode, the attorneys go head-to-head through 3 rounds:

Lawsuits Gone Wild

Legal Myths: Fact or Fiction

Dumb Criminals

We break down the $67 million pants lawsuit, the Red Bull “gives you wings” case, and the real story behind the McDonald’s hot coffee case. Then we tackle legal myths about Miranda rights, undercover cops, self-defense, and more — before finishing with some truly unbelievable criminal stories.

This one is funny, competitive, and chaotic… but it also has a serious point:

a lot of what people think they know about the law is flat wrong.

📌 CORRECTIONS & CLARIFICATIONS:

In this podcast episode, we discussed the facts of K.G.M. v. Meta & Google, which is a California STATE court trial in Los Angeles — not a federal case. During our legal discussion, some of our procedural commentary (motion to dismiss stage, summary judgment still to come) actually applies to the separate federal multidistrict litigation in Oakland, CA, which is still in pre-trial stages. By our air date, the K.G.M. state trial was already underway with opening statements and witness testimony.

A few additional corrections:

K.G.M. began using YouTube at age 6 and Instagram around age 9 (we stated age 10)

Opening statements began the week of Feb. 9, 2026 — not Jan. 27 (that was jury selection/TikTok settlement)

40+ state attorneys general have filed suit against Meta (we stated 33)

The core of our discussion — the product liability theory, Section 230 workaround, internal Meta documents, TikTok/Snapchat settlements, and the Big Tobacco parallels — remains accurate. Multiple overlapping cases are happening in 2026 and some details got crossed.
