Drunk DoorDasher Crashes Into an Elderly Woman and Gets Arrested for DWI

Around 5:30 PM on July 7, 2025, Officer Andrew Myers with the Ewing Township Police Department observed a 2-car motor vehicle accident while he was on patrol in the vicinity of N Olden Avenue and Princeton Avenue. He exited his patrol car and first initiated contact with the driver of a black 2021 Honda HR-V, who was later identified as 22-year-old Christina. He then spoke with the 74-year-old driver of a grey 2012 Toyota Camry, who was struck from behind by Christina. The driver of the Toyota Camry was later transported to the hospital for further evaluation.

As Officer Miller returned to speak with Christina, he detected the odor of alcohol and observed other indicators of impairment. Christina denied consuming any alcohol, and said that she was delivering for Door Dash. Based on the officers’ suspicion of impairment, Christina was asked to perform field sobriety exercises.

Officer Myers started with the Walk and Turn test. During the Walk and Turn test, Christina failed to touch heel-to-toe on each step, turned improperly, and took an incorrect number of steps. The second exercise was the One Leg Stand test. During the One Leg Stand test, Christina failed to raise her foot in the proper fashion and put her foot down before the test was complete. The final exercise was the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN) test.

Based on the motor vehicle crash, the odor of alcohol, and her inability to satisfactorily complete the field sobriety exercises, Officer Myers placed Christina under arrest for driving under the influence. During a search of her vehicle incident to arrest, Officer Graham located a flask with what appeared to be wine. After her vehicle was searched, her vehicle was impounded for a mandatory 12-hour hold under John’s Law. Officer Myers transported Christina to the Ewing Township Police Department for further processing.

At the Ewing Township Police Department, Christina was read the Standard Statement for Motor Vehicle Operators, and initially agreed to submit breath samples. However, she failed to provide adequate breath samples when Officer Djemilev was administering the Alcotest machine, so she was ultimately charged with a refusal. When the officers were finished with processing her, Christina was released to her mother pending her court appearance after she signed the Potential Liability Warning form on Christina’s behalf.

Christina was issued the following traffic citations:
-Operating under the influence (39:4-50)
-Consent to take samples of breath (39:4-50.2)4

On October 29, 2025, Christina pleaded guilty to operating under the influence. As a result of her guilty plea, Christina had to spend 12 hours at an intoxicated driver resource center, use an ignition interlock device for 3 months, and pay a total of $383 in fines. The other citation for refusal was dismissed as part of a plea agreement.

Court records also indicate that on May 15, 2024, Christina has previously been cited for careless driving and leaving the scene of an accident involving property damage in Hightstown, New Jersey. Prior to that, she had been caught using a fake ID to enter a place that serves alcohol in Beach Haven, New Jersey on July 29, 2023.
