Car shown rolling into pond after Jaguars running back Denard Robinson falls asleep at wheel

Posted

Earlier this month, Jacksonville Jaguars running back Denard Robinson was found asleep behind the wheel of a sinking car.

Video footage obtained Wednesday revealed the moment that led to the accident.

The 25-year-old Robinson apparently fell asleep while stopped at an intersection in Jacksonville early in the morning on July 3. His car then drifted into a nearby pond.

A police report said Robinson and a female companion in the passenger seat were both found asleep just after 4 a.m. on July 3. Both walked away without injuries, and police determined Robinson was not impaired during the accident.

After the accident, Robinson warned about the dangers of drowsy driving.
