Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said a Land Rover, which the golf legend was driving, tried to overtake a truck "at high speeds" before it swerved and rolled on to its side after clipping a truck towing a trailer.
He said Woods showed "signs of impairment" after the incident, which happened shortly after 2pm local time on Friday and not far from where the golfer lives on Jupiter Island.
Woods, 50, took a breathalyser test after his arrest, which came back negative, but the golfer then refused to give a urine sample, police said.
Sheriff Budensiek told reporters during a news conference: "When it came time for us to ask for a urinalysis test, he refused, and so he has been charged with DUI, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test."
None of the parties involved in the crash reported injuries.
Pointing to how the smash unfolded on a small, two-lane road, Sheriff Budensiek said it was lucky no one was injured.
"Had there been someone moving in the opposite direction, we would not be having a conversation saying there was no injuries. This could've been a lot worse," Sheriff Budensiek said.
"He [Woods] was lethargic on scene but that we believe was because of what he was intoxicated on."
The vehicle Woods hit was a truck towing a pressure cleaner trailer.

The truck driver tried to "edge off" the side of the road to get out of the way but there was not enough room, the sheriff explained during an update on Friday.
It is not known if Woods was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash, as he "crawled out of the passenger door" prior to police arriving at the scene.
Woods was held in custody in Martin County Jail for around eight hours before he was released on bail.
'Very close friend' of Trump
President Donald Trump, whose former daughter-in-law Vanessa Trump is dating Woods, was asked about the golfer when he landed in Miami on Friday for an investment summit.
"I feel so badly. He's got some difficulty," Mr Trump said. "Very close friend of mine. He's an amazing person. Amazing man. But, some difficulty."
This was the latest in a series of vehicle-related incidents involving Woods, most recently in February 2021 when his SUV ran off a coastal road in Los Angeles at a high rate of speed, leading to multiple leg and ankle injuries.
Woods said later his injuries were so bad that doctors considered amputation.
He also was arrested on a DUI charge in 2017 when South Florida police found him asleep behind the wheel of his car that was parked awkwardly with damage to the driver's side.
He later pleaded guilty to reckless driving after it emerged he had had five prescription drugs in his system at the time.
In 2009 he crashed his car into a fire hydrant and tree outside his Florida home - an accident which inadvertently led to a spectacular unravelling of his private life.
Woods' then wife, Elin Nordegren, used a golf club to smash a window of his Cadillac Escalade to get him out.
'I'm not perfect'
"This situation is my fault and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me," Woods said on his official website at the time.
"I'm human and I'm not perfect."
The incident revealed a bitter marital dispute with Nordegren, as a host of women came forward to admit to having had extramarital affairs with Woods.
Woods and Nordegren divorced in August 2010.
The latest crash comes after Woods returned to competitive action for the first time in over a year on the final night of play in the indoor TGL competition on Tuesday.
He had said afterwards that he hoped he would be fit enough to play at the Masters next month.
Woods is widely regarded as one of the greatest golfers of all time. His major titles include five Masters, three US Opens, three British Opens and four PGA Championships.
Officers were called just before 6am on 28 March to Kennerleigh Avenue, Austhorpe, to reports of a young woman being found unconscious in the street.
She was found to have suffered serious injuries and was taken to hospital for immediate medical treatment, but was pronounced dead shortly afterwards.
The woman remains unidentified at this time, with enquiries ongoing to identify her, so her next of kin can be notified.
Detectives are also releasing details of her identity in the hope that someone will recognise her from the following description.
She is of slim build and has tanned skin.
She is 5ft 2ins tall and believed to be in her mid to late teens, with green eyes and brown hair with darker roots and blonder ends. She also has fixed metal braces to her upper and lower teeth.
Four people - two women aged 18, a man aged 20 and a boy aged 17 - were all arrested from a nearby address on suspicion of murder.
All four remain in police custody and a scene remains in place while the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team carry out further enquiries.
Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Superintendent Marc Bowes, said: "This is an extremely complex investigation where a young woman has sadly lost her life.
"We are treating her death as murder and have arrested four people in connection with it.
"Despite carrying out extensive enquiries throughout the course of today, we have not yet been able to confirm her identity.
"We hope by releasing these details that someone will recognise who she is and come forward.
"I am also keen to speak to anyone who was in the Kennerleigh Avenue area in the early hours of this morning, or anyone who may have seen any suspicious activity in the vicinity."

Anti-terrorism prosecutors have begun an investigation after a man allegedly tried to ignite an improvised explosive device close to the US bank's premises.
The incident happened early on Saturday when officers spotted two suspects carrying a shopping bag near the building in the capital's 8th arrondissement, or district, according to RTL radio, citing police sources.
One of the suspects, who was holding a lighter, was attempting to light a device, RTL said.
He was arrested in the area at around 3.25am local time (2.25am UK time) and was taken into custody, according to Le Parisien.
The second suspect fled the scene and remains at large.
The detained suspect told police he had been contacted via Snapchat and paid 600 euros (£520) to carry out the act, adding he was driven to the scene by another person, Le Parisien reported.
The newspaper said the device consisted of a 5-litre container filled with an unidentified liquid and an explosive charge made of 650g of powder.
It was secured and handed over to forensic experts from the Paris police laboratory, according to Le Parisien.
The Paris police authority declined to comment.
"We are aware of the situation and are communicating with the authorities," a Bank of America spokesperson said.
An investigation into alleged terrorism-related offences has been opened by the national anti-terrorism prosecutor's office, or PNAT.
The suspected offences include attempted damage by fire or by a dangerous means, the manufacture of an incendiary or explosive device, the possession and transport of such devices with the intent to prepare dangerous damage, and involvement in a terrorist criminal association.

France's interior minister Laurent Nunez praised officers, saying on social media: "Well done to the rapid intervention of a Paris police prefecture unit, which made it possible to thwart a violent act of a terrorist nature overnight in Paris.
"Vigilance remains at a very high level.
"I commend all security and intelligence forces, fully mobilised under my authority in the current international context."
Since the Iran war started, French authorities have strengthened the protection of Iranian opposition figures and increased security around sites that may be a target, including those linked to US interests and to the Jewish community, Mr Nunez previously said.
The crowds came out for the Together Alliance event, which was framed as a stand against the "politics of division".
It comprised a march, speeches in Whitehall - including a video message from London Mayor, Sir Sadiq Khan - and a music event in Trafalgar Square.
A separate march organised by the Palestine Coalition also took place, joining the route of the Together Alliance march before the groups combined in Whitehall.
Elsewhere, 18 people staged a protest outside New Scotland Yard in support of Palestine Action, a proscribed organisation.
The Metropolitan Police announced on X, formerly Twitter, that arrests had been made at that demonstration.
It comes after more than 100,000 people turned out for a right-wing rally, Unite The Kingdom, in London last September.
That event, planned by right-wing activist Tommy Robinson, sparked several incidents of violent disorder which left some police officers injured.
In comparison, today's rally against the far right drew an estimated 500,000 people, co-organiser Kevin Courtney announced to the crowds on Whitehall.
He said: "Our estimate is now that there are half a million people on this demonstration - the biggest demonstration ever against the far right.
"And it gives us all confidence to carry on. Thank you very much."

Another organiser, Sabby Dhalu, said: "We're confident that the size of our mobilisation here today has actually intimidated the far right.
"I think they are not confident enough to stand against us because they know that we're going to be out in big numbers."
Having fought athletics chiefs over her own gender eligibility, the double Olympic champion is shaping up for a new battle with the International Olympic Committee.
"If we have to say women must stop taking part in Olympics, so be it," the South African said in an exclusive interview with Sky News.
"I will encourage athletes to come together as a class action ... because this does not make sense. It does not save women's sport."
The South African is encouraging a challenge against the landmark decision to reintroduce sex testing alongside banning transgender women and athletes - like herself - with differences in sex development (DSD) from women's competitions.
"I'm fighting for women's dignity," Semenya said. "Those who say, 'I am not going to be tested to prove that I'm a woman' ... I will encourage them to do that to stop this nonsense."
This goes beyond sport since Donald Trump seized on stopping "men beat and batter female athletes".
IOC President Kirsty Coventry, a former Olympic champion swimmer, and many other women in sport now align with the US president.
The Zimbabwean determined it is not fair for biological males to compete in the female competitions because physiological advantages of having gone through male puberty, or the presence of XY chromosomes, can be the difference in determining medals.
"This regulation is totally shameful," Semenya said. "It's something that her as a president should have not allowed such to happen."
But the IOC has said there is at least a 10% advantage in most running and swimming events for men - rising beyond 100% for sports requiring "explosive power" like boxing, which creates dangers beyond fairness of competitions.
I put this to Semenya.
"Based on what?" she responded. "There's no scientific proof about what has been said. It's an ideology."
The full scientific research behind the decision has not been published. Nor has the IOC said what has changed in recent years scientifically or medically.
But is it not clear in combat sports there are safety concerns when a biological woman takes on a fighter who was born a man, with higher testosterone levels and greater muscle mass?
"What do you expect in boxing?" Semenya responded. "We understand that it's a dangerous sport. We all sign in, in all sporting codes, knowing that there are safety precautions.
"There are risks, but you cannot come and then try to measure someone's power based on how they look because you think they're intersex or you think that they're transgender."

Semenya has become the face of scrutiny of eligibility rules since her gender was questioned based on her appearance after winning gold at the world athletics championships as a 19-year-old in 2009.
Enforced verification tests showed that while she always identified as female and had female traits, Semenya also had the typical male XY chromosome pattern and high levels of naturally occurring testosterone.
After being cleared to race, Semenya was still able to win Olympic gold in 2012 and 2016.
But then she refused to artificially reduce her hormone levels as required by World Athletics and lost further legal challenges. So the 35-year-old now coaches.
Mandatory sex verification testing for all entrants into Olympic women's events will ensure a competitor isn't singled out for tests because they might have masculine characteristics.
The IOC's stance has transformed since ruling out a return to the "bad old days" of sex testing during Paris 2024 when Thomas Bach was in charge.
But Semenya said: "There is no respect for women. The minute you start asking a woman to be tested to take part in sports, that's not dignity."
When the IOC said this policy would apply to all their events I asked Ms Coventry if that includes the Youth Olympics. It does, meaning girls as young as 15 will have to take sex tests.
She said: "We really went above and beyond, I think, talking to a lot of different athletes, around how the process should be followed and what does that look like, and the support networks that need to be in place."
For Semenya this just adds to safeguarding issues.
"Testing a girl, a child, it is harmful and it is shameful," she said.
Will the rules stand up to a legal challenge ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics?
While Semenya says she is fighting for the dignity of women, the IOC insists this is about protecting the safety and integrity of women's sport but could need to produce more evidence.
