Will traffic court judges entertain a motion to dismiss with payment of costs and no finding

I recently swerved and accelerated to avoid hitting a cat. The Clerk Magistrate would not dismiss the case, so I appealed to a judge. I am willing to pay the $100, but want to keep my 99 Merit rating (and save on insurance for six years!). In view of the circumstances, if I appear before a judge, could he possibly (legally) change the charge to a non-moving violation (e. g. parking), or accept the "motion to dismiss with payment of costs and no finding" (presumably for six months)? Or are such "plea deals" no longer legal in this state?
