45:38Now PlayingDuring the early morning hours of February 4, 2023, Hillsborough Police were called to the site of a disabled vehicle near the intersection of Wertsville Road and Montgomery Road in Hillsborough, New Jersey. Upon arrival, Officer Lawrence noticed that the front passenger-side tire was damaged, along with scratches and dents on the vehicle. He proceeded to question the driver, who was later identified as 33-year-old Abigail Bickar. Ms. Bickar initially denied consuming any alcohol, and told Officer Lawrence that she was coming from her friend’s house.
After the Police observed vomit in the drive side of the car and she exhibited signs of impairment, the officer asked her to participate in field standard field sobriety exercises. Ms. Bickar was unable to properly recite the alphabet, count, walk a straight line, or stand on one leg. Based on these signs of impairment, Officer Lawrence placed Ms. Bickar under arrest for driving under the influence. After she was processed as Hillsborough Police HQ, she was subsequently released with the following citations: Operating under the influence, reckless driving, careless driving, and refusal to submit to chemical test.
This channel previously featured a high school dropout who was unable to recite the alphabet during her DWI arrest, but apparently a college educated gymnastics teacher is not much better when she is under the influence....
Here is the video of the high school dropout

Our content is educational and in compliance with YouTube's Fair Use Policy because we edit several long clips into a concise story. This is similar to other law enforcement channels on YouTube. All videos and case documents were obtained pursuant to the New Jersey Open Public Records Act, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq. (P.L. 2001, c. 404). Defendants are considered innocent until proven guilty.
The New Jersey Supreme Court has previously affirmed in Salzano v. North Jersey Media Group, 993 A.2d 778 (2010) that “The fair-report privilege reflects the judgment that the need, in a self-governing society, for free-flowing information about matters of public interest outweighs concerns over the uncompensated injury to a person's reputation.” This video advances a compelling public interest. The summary of events was based on records that are “open to public view through open access to public records” as defined in the Salzano case. In Ramos v. Flowers, 429 N.J. Super. 13, the Appellate Division of the Superior Court has also affirmed the right to film law enforcement interactions.
