The first piece of advice we have for our supporters is that if they are faced with the consequences of a bad decision or a lack of judgment it is generally better not to commit further indiscretions to remedy the first situation. We know this is a revolutionary idea, but bear with us. Michael didn't want to be cited for driving without a license, so he thought to himself, "What situations would cause me to get off the hook?" He apparently answered himself that if he were dead he wouldn't be cited, and proceeded to obtain a fraudulent death certificate and send a fraudulent witness to his court date. While he did get the case dismissed, the gravity of the new offenses was such that, when discovered, they caused him much more difficulty.
Our next bit of advice is that it is generally best to pick a cover-up that can be used more than just once. This advice is good in general for excuses, since once you have use a fatal excuse, such as your parents or grandparents dying, it becomes much harder to come up with an excuse the next time. Mr. Rosen's mistake here is that now that he has been caught for fraudulently producing a death certificate he won't be able to fake his death to get out of this one.
In general, though, the GNU Public Dictatorship is opposed to people weaseling their way out of past offenses for which they have been caught. We prefer that people own up to their mistakes and face the consequences, but we do understand that there are circumstances that make this difficult and we do allow for people to get out of trouble, but we want to be clear that we don't advocate the methods used by Mr. Rosen.

I just got a ticket for careless driving Toronto and I'm very upset and angry. The ticket is too expensive and I can't afford to pay it. That's way, I'm seriously thinking to hire a lawyer as soon as possible. A friend of mine actually recommended me a professional lawyer from http://www.nopointstraffictickets.com. I must contact him because I can't wait to get rid of this traffic ticket!
Susan,
At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not sorry you can't afford your traffic ticket.
At the same time, however, we believe you should exercise more caution while driving Toronto. (Incidentally, we would like to ask you how you "drive Toronto"--is it hooked up to some large moving machine like the one that moved the Space Shuttle to the launchpad?) A good supporter of the GPD does not drive carelessly, even when they are driving a large metropolis.
What I can't figure out, however, is how you are going to afford a lawyer to fight the traffic ticket if you can't pay for the ticket itself? Especially a "professional lawyer" who probably charges more than the average amateur lawyer you can pick up behind the local gas station where they wait for locals to offer them employment. The GPD recommends that you either (1) just pay the fine, or (2) represent yourself in traffic court if you feel you have been cited improperly. Based on your description, however, it sounds like you were carelessly driving the capital of Ontario, and that fighting the ticket would be dishonest.
Avoiding a traffic ticket sounds exciting, but the gist of this post was to indicate that generally our supporters should accept the consequences of their bad choices and not compound the problem through further bad choices.
We wish you luck, Susan, and if you want some free advice you're always welcome to post here or visit your local GPD office!
