I know 90 year olds driving. No way their reaction time is better than most on the OT at drunk levels.

Pretrial diversion is the best route.
An 894 plea is still a conviction and simply allows for an expungement, which is done down the line, costs a few hundred dollars, does not happen automatically, and is not nearly as good as avoiding the conviction in the first place.
Or he might want to hire a lawyer to see if it's even a good case for the state.
Sometimes a local lawyer can get a better deal than a pro se defendant.
If possible, pay the money, however much it is, to get pretrial intervention.
