The option to plead down to unsafe operation is available twice within a 5 year period unless they changed that recently, so if the prosecutor is feeling lenient, he or she can offer that to you. As you know it's no points, but expect to pay between $400-$500 for it.

It's more likely that they'll be willing to drop to a careless or similar. It'll prolly cost you a few hundred bucks and you'll still have 2 points, but you lose 2 a year if you have no offenses, and you can take the safe / defensive driving courses to take off 1 or 2 points.
