This is just a guess, as I don't have any special knowledge of Canadian law, but I think the result might be an absolute discharge, which in Canada would mean a guilty finding but with no conviction or criminal record - used where a crime has been committed, but where for some exceptional reason there is thought not to be any reason to give out a punishment.
(NB: In England, an absolute discharge is very similar, but does count as a conviction and leave a criminal record.)
On a slightly separate issue - would she actually be able to get the car moving? Are most cars in Canada automatics? If so, then I can't comment about those, but if it's a manual, someone who's never driven would find it VERY difficult to drive - even with being told what to do (clutch control and all that!).
