Oliver Konteh, part of the TV crew filming Grown-ish, told TMZ that Woods 'took off fast' and almost hit another car belonging to the 'Grown-ish' director as he left the parking lot, just after 7am. A front door camera then captured Woods driving at normal speed around 7.

05am along Hawthorne Boulevard, around five miles south of the spot where he would later crash. Around 7.15am Woods lost control on a downhill stretch of the road, smashed through a road sign and rolled his car several hundred feet in a horror smash that police said he was 'lucky to survive'.
