Self preservation is natural instinct. Most people will struggle for every bit of life they can and to be able to be around and protect their families, regardless of whether they are guilty of something. If humans just gave up every time they were trapped, evolution would have made us extinct a long time ago.
Obviously his lawyers have convinced him that pleading not guilty is the best choice for him.

It's one thing to try and get off lightly, it's another completely to not take responsibility for your actions. He shows no remorse, no empathy, nothing. If, God forbid, I ever killed 5 people in a vehicle, I would cry non-stop until my eyes bled. I would plead guilty, and yeah, I'd try to plead guilty to a lesser charge, but I wouldn't say, 'sorry 'bout that. I was having a bad day.'
