Tracy Morgan says he forgives the truck driver who left him hospitalized


Tracy Morgan has made peace with the truck driver behind the 2014 car crash that left him severely hospitalized.

The comedian paid Conan O'Brien a visit on the New York set of the host's TBS show Thursday to clear the air and update the audience on his personal life since the accident.

"I forgave him, and I'm not even mad at him no more," Morgan said to rousing applause, before jokingly adding, "But you know who is mad at him? All my white neighbors."

He quipped that he suspects his new neighbors are unhappy that he recently moved into the neighborhood, and that he purposely drives his Lamborghini at 30 mph around the block to anger them.

"They ain't never seen a black motherf—er in a Lamborghini!" he teased.

When asked about the overflowing support he received while in recovery, Morgan shared, "My family came, everybody came — everybody showed up just to tell me they love me. Except for my grandmother, she was there, but just like every other old black woman, all she cares about is education."

He joked that when he told his grandma he was relieved to be alive, she snapped back: "Good. Now you can go back and get your GED."
