Would you book someone for a little slide round a corner (backend wiggle)? Not in total control of the vehicle, completely accidental. Who hasnt done it?

I'm obviously not saying you should use that as an excuse for pulling a **** off monster wheelie down the road, but a little one pulling away or similar, you could try and wiggle out of.
No, i am saying the plan of saying it was an accident is not a good plan!

Technically, yes, I could book someone for having a little slide around a corner, as clearly you are not in proper control of the vehicle and have taken a corner too fast. Whether I would or not is a different matter.

And if someone used that line of "it was accidental" for doing a wheelie, no matter how small, when pulling away, I could almost guarentee I would book them. I have never done it yet so in my opinion, an "accidental" one would show you being less in control of your vehicle than a bloody planned one!

However, should anyone wish to follow the "accidental" advice, feel free.

Like I said, best advice....infact, no, best advice is S_H's!
