When you get a speeding ticket and you go to court and ask the judge if you can pay the tiocket but not get the points... is that called being put on Probation, or is it called being put "under advisement"?

Get it reduced or take it to trial

Depends where you are, in Ontario Canada the points are the sole responsibility of the Ministry of Transportation. If a conviction is registered the justice of the peace can lower or get rid of the fine but the points will come off anyway. The JP has no control over that. The only way not to lose points is not to get the conviction.

Yes, but you don't go ask for that.
You plead not guilty, have a trial date set, then hope the prosecutor doesn't want to try the case because he's really busy.
You negotiate between the not guilty plea and the trial date.

You can plead no contest, Look up a legal sight, but thats what I did, your fine will get cut in half too.
