Well, my buddy has decided to take it to court and plead that he may have been driving fast but not recklessly. He's aiming for a lessened charge and not a complete acquittal as he believes he is deserving of some penalty. I'm thinking there's a chance it may get dropped entirely once the whole story gets hashed out before the judge. I'd play it differently, but it's his choice.

Andy,
How about his saying that it WAS NOT HIM!! Does he "fess up" and say that he saw the police or wreck? If not then why plead anything but not guilty to ANYTHING?
I just do not get it. If you cannot confirm that you, the car or your friend was there and was the one that they were after, then why admit to anything???
