Just in May 2017, Woods was arrested for driving under the influence. He fell asleep in his car while stopped at a traffic lane with the engine running. Later he admitted that he was taking prescription drugs and didn’t know how it might interact with alcohol. As a result, he entered a program and skipped arraignment before pleading guilty to reckless driving. He earned a year of probation, was fined $250, and was ordered to undergo 50 hours of community service. Moreover, he had to undergo regular drug tests and if he failed, he would be sentenced to 90 days in jail with an additional $500 fine.
