Details of the Collision
According to reports, the collision happened when Jones’ vehicle was struck on the side—a T-bone impact—which typically occurs when one car runs a red light or fails to yield. These types of crashes are among the most dangerous due to the limited protection on the sides of vehicles, and in this case, the force of the impact caused significant damage. Emergency responders were called to the scene immediately, with multiple witnesses recounting the chaotic moments following the accident.
The video shows the tycoon driving his black sedan up the left lane and swerve to avoid the silver car.
Then, with screeching tires, he collides hard into the side door of the silver sedan.
It lifts off the road and launches sideways, before spinning nearly 360 degrees and landing facing opposite traffic, where it rolls forward off-camera alongside Jones’ sedan.
The footage then cuts to the parking lot of a Hyatt House hotel located just past the intersection, where Jones can be seen speaking with witnesses and the driver of the silver car.
Both appear unhurt and congenial, though Jones can be seen to walking with a slight limp and raises the pants on his left leg to examine himself. The driver of the silver sedan can be seen to place his hand over his heart, and his head in his hands, though he appears physically unhurt.
Jones and the other driver are both seen placing phone calls, and later in the clip Jones is seen speaking with Dallas police.
Jones’ son, Stephen Jones, told multiple outlets that his father was checked him into a hospital following the incident. Jones’ son told ESPN by text that his father was back home and was ‘all good.’
Dallas PD confirmed that a crash had occurred at that intersection, and told DailyMail.com that one individual was transported to the hospital for ‘precautionary measures.’
‘It is not our practice to give the names of the individuals involved in vehicle accidents unless there is a fatality. I can confirm that we worked a two-vehicle accident at the location and one person was transported for precautionary measures.’
Dallas PD have not responded to DailyMail.com requests for comment on whether Jones was speeding in the 35mph zone before the accident.
