Denard Robinson’s fine for crashing into a pond will make you laugh. His fine is less than what it costs if you park in front of a fire hydrant.
When you think of any traffic fines, the majority are over $100. The above video shows how Denard Robinson began to drift off to sleep but he thankfully wasn’t hurt. However, his fine is cheaper than it is to buy a pair of Jordan’s these days.
The Jaguars’ running back ended up in a pond after he claimed that he fell asleep behind the wheel. His lawyer, Henry Coxe, showed up to court on his behalf and argued the whole thing.
The 25-year-old running back was cited for careless driving after crossing a few lanes of traffic and crashing his car into a retention pond on July 3rd.
According to Florida Times-Union’s Larry Hannan, Robinson just pled no contest to the citation. The judge ordered him to pay $100 fine and said he’ll get no points on his driving record.
Robinson was not present in court, but sent his attorney, Henry Coxe, on his behalf. He argued Robinson’s car drifted after he fell asleep at a red light … but barely went into the water.
If you’ve ever experienced any sort of fines, were they this cheap? Robinson’s lawyer deserves all the credit here.
