A police report on the Aug. 26 wreck involving Nick Bollea, 17, the son of Hulk Hogan, says the roads were wet at the time of the accident and that Bollea "disregarded other traffic control." Translation: He was speeding, police say.

Results of a drug and alcohol test are pending, according to the Clearwater police report. It's not known when they will be ready. The crash critically injured Bollea's friend and passenger, John Graziano, 22, who remains comatose at Bayfront Medical Center.

It also caused $500 in property damage to city shrubs and $50,000 in damage to the totaled Supra, which is owned by Terry Bollea, also known as Hulk Hogan.
