What Are Possible Pleas For 141(5)?

by: DrivingDave on

I'm thinking of taking a plea bargain but I can't really think of anything at the moment that I can lower the offense to. I've made a bad left and the car t-boned me. However the officer recommended I argue it in court so there's probably something that I can do. He mentioned that I should say that I only have a G2 or something and just started driving.


Thanks for your help.

Just to expand on what jsherk said above, the prosecutor will choose what he/she will offer as a plea bargain, furthermore and I am not 100% sure about this, but I think they are also constrained by what they can offer as a deal depending on what the original charge was.

What I mean is, they can not replace a "failed to stop at stop sign" with "speeding 10Km over posted"

Two completely different charges and sections of HTA.
