Tiger Woods and wife Elin Nordegren just left the family house and drove separately to the home Elin is renting nearby ... witnesses tell TMZ.
As we first reported, Elin came to the family house this AM. Tiger hadn't left the house today until a few minutes ago, when he drove away in a white SUV. Elin followed behind in the red SUV and they drove to the home Elin is renting in the nearby development.
It's yet another piece of evidence that there is some solidarity between Tiger and Elin. This morning Elin was decked out in Nike -- the sponsor that stood behind Tiger.
Who knows ... they could work this out.

Charlie Sheen got one hell of a wake up call this morning when an operator from an OnStar-like service called to inform him that his SUV had crashed.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sheen got the call around 4AM when his remote diagnostics company received an alert that the car had been involved in a wreck and the airbags had deployed.
We're told Sheen alerted his security team who inspected the home and confirmed that the car had been stolen.
Cops later found the wrecked SUV 100 feet down Mulholland Drive.
We're told the L.A. Fire Department used an infrared scanner to search for any victims, but the search came up empty.
Cops are still hunting for a suspect.

Shanna Moakler and Stephanie Pratt were involved in a $100,000 mix up last night -- when they somehow got into the wrong cars at an L.A. valet stand and unknowingly drove off with each other's rides.
The two reality stars, who have the same white BMW SUV, were given each other's vehicles at the valet at Voyeur nightclub -- but neither woman noticed the screw up until they were miles from the club.
You'd think Pratt (left) would have noticed the baby seat in the back -- oh wait, no you wouldn't.
The two solved the motor mix-up over Twitter and plan on meeting up to trade cars.

Tiger Woods
allowed Florida State troopers to examine his upper body for injuries during a meeting with them last month, this according to WESH in Florida.
Tiger lifted up his shirt, says the station, during the December 1 meeting so that troopers could see if he had any additional injuries after his SUV crash.
As we previously reported, the only injury Tiger suffered, according to cops, was a "fat lip."

TMZ has just obtained a copy of the dispatch log from Tiger Woods' SUV crash on November 27.
It lists the chronology of calls, beginning at 2:32 AM which says, "Blk Escalade vs. Tree... driver on ground unconscious."
It also shows that Tiger was transported to the hospital.
The log also shows the next day, at 2:45 PM, Tiger's agent, Mark Steinberg, called the Florida Highway Patrol to reschedule the meeting with Tiger to talk about the accident. Steinberg said, "He's still too sore from the accident."

The Florida Highway Patrol wanted to get a blood test from Tiger Woods after the crash, because a witness told them Tiger was boozing earlier in the day -- this according to new documents obtained by TMZ.
FHP had requested Tiger's blood sample, after a witness -- we're told his wife -- "stated that the driver had consumed alcohol earlier in the day and the same witness removed the driver from the vehicle after the collision."
The document continues, "The same witness stated that the driver was prescribed medication (Ambien and Vicatin [sic]}."
As we first reported, it was Elin Nordegren who pulled Tiger from the crash and told cops he had taken medicine (but she didn't know when) and even brought the pill bottles to the EMTs.
The document concludes, "Impairment of the driver is also suspected due to the careless driving that resulted in the traffic crash."
Ultimately, the FHP's request for the blood sample was denied, on grounds of insufficient evidence to issue a subpoena.
The FHP has determined alcohol was not a factor.

The photos authorities just released of the Tiger Woods crash show multiple surveillance cameras on Tiger's property -- and one of the cameras points right down the driveway.
As we first reported, cops wanted to see the surveillance video, but we're told it was not turned over.
If video exists, it should show both Tiger and his wife leaving the property.

Tiger Woods' car crash is really gonna cost him ... $164.
The Florida Highway Patrol just said Tiger will be given a ticket for careless driving -- the result of Friday's single-vehicle crash.
The FHP said the investigation is complete and it will not seek any search warrants for his medical records.
The agency also says no one involved has made claims of domestic violence.

Tiger Woods did not bleed in the vehicle he crashed Friday morning -- not a single drop -- according to law enforcement sources.
Cops from the Windermere PD, who first responded on scene, observed Tiger's lower lip split open and we're told he had other marks as well. But TMZ sources say there was absolutely no blood in the SUV.
What's more -- we've learned Tiger's wife, Elin Nordegren, told Windermere cops she smashed the back passenger window with the golf club, then unlocked the driver's door and dragged Tiger out. Yet there were no traces of blood.
This has created even more suspicion with law enforcement ... that Tiger's wounds may have not been the result of SUV meets fire hydrant.
We're told the Florida Highway Patrol has been frustrated by attempts to secure video of the accident. Even though we know there were surveillance cameras on Tiger's property, his lawyer isn't making video available. The people who manage the gated community have said they have no video of the crash.
As we first reported, the FHP sent troopers to the hospital where Tiger was treated yesterday in an attempt to secure medical records, which could unlock the mystery of how Tiger was injured. We're told, so far no luck. Although an FHP spokesperson has said the department has not asked for a search warrant to obtain medical records, we know they are pursuing that route.
As for what charges could be filed -- there are two possibilities on the table. The main focus now is Tiger's injuries. If the injuries have the markers of a domestic dispute, we're told Tiger's wife would almost certainly be arrested.
As for Tiger, troopers are looking at whether he was driving under the influence. As we have already reported, the paramedics on the scene saw that Tiger was unresponsive and asked Elin if he was taking any meds. She went inside, retrieved two prescription bottles and gave them to paramedics. Elin said she did not know when Tiger had last taken the meds. We already reported Tiger had told a friend he was taking prescription pain meds.
But in Florida, it's almost impossible to charge someone with DUI unless someone actually sees the suspect behind the wheel, driving the vehicle. No one has come forward saying they saw Tiger driving.

Security in Tiger Woods' private community has ramped up to the point where even the people who live there are being told where they can and cannot go.
Sources tell TMZ residents are being kept away from Tiger's infamous crash site and one resident even had his camera's memory card confiscated by Isleworth security.
Tiger announced earlier today that his injuries from Friday's accident would force him to pull out of his upcoming golf tournament.

TMZ now has an eyewitness account of what happened immediately following Tiger Woods' car accident.
According to a witness, Tiger had a cut on his lower lip when emergency responders and witnesses arrived. The wound was bloody.
Tiger was wearing shorts, a t-shirt and no shoes. It's illegal in Florida to drive without shoes.
Tiger was lying on the ground unconscious when EMT workers arrived. They used "pain stimulus" -- a method where pressure is applied on an unconscious person to make them alert -- but Tiger only briefly opened his eyes and then lost consciousness.
We're told EMTs asked Tiger's wife, Elin Nordegren, if Tiger was taking any medications. She went in the house and brought out two pill bottles. She said she did not know when he had last taken the meds.
Elin was extremely upset and was told twice by paramedics to stand back while they tended to her husband.
