The $12.1 million worth businessman and the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones, was involved in a car crash in Dallas. In May, a Hyundai Sonata T-boned into Jerry Jones’ car. Fortunately, the mega-billionaire did not sustain any injuries except for a slight limp. And a new update revealed the Cowboys captain did not wear a seatbelt.

The Dallas Police established a driver made an improper turn. While doing so, the driver approached the moving car of the Cowboys captain. The driver tried to make a delivery for Door Dash. Later, he realized he needed to make a left turn into Wolf Street. When he slowed down at an intersection, he made an erroneous turn. The move put him in the path of Jone’s vehicle.
