Denard Robinson is in good spirits since crashing his car into a pond at the beginning a month. Robinson and a female companion were traveling in the car when they both reportedly fell asleep sending the car careening over several lanes and ultimately landing into a retention pond. No other cars were involved in the accident.
Speaking to reporters, Robinson reiterated this was simply the case of exhaustion.
“I fell asleep at the light … I was at the light sitting there waiting and I ended up dozing off. It was late at night and I had a busy day. It was one of those days where I should’ve just stayed in.”
Robinson has maintained he was not under the influence of drugs or alchol at the time of the incident.
“I feel blessed, because it could have been a situation where I wasn’t talking to you right now … The situation could’ve been way worse.”
“I could’ve hurt somebody or killed somebody, so I’m truly blessed that nothing happened to nobody. I came out with no scratches and my passenger was the same way.”
Investigators have not revealed any details to contradict Robinson’s version of the incident.
