Woes of the GO train commuter

As someone that takes the GO train to and from work each and everyday, I was quite upset when my mother came home 3/4 months ago with a ticket stating she had not cancelled her ride. If anyone has ever met my mom, she is the most honest person in the world as well as the most punctual! I used to ride the train with her everyday and I have to admit it used to annoy me. When getting dropped off at the station in the morning, she would have a fit if we were to leave any later than 20 minutes before the train arrives. And if you've come to our place (north of 16th!) you would know that it literally takes 30 seconds by car to get to our station! And as she was leaving too early for me, I had to stop taking the train with her. Since my mom gets to the station so early, the first thing she would do is get out of the car to cancel the ticket and then back in the car again to wait for the train. I have to wonder, had I kept taking the train with her, would she still have gotten that ticket? I don't think she had put up that much of a fight with the inspector as I would have, had I been with her that fateful morning in November when she got it. Even until now, she still refuses to sit in that same compartment out of fear of embarassment of seeing the same people that were sitting beside her when she got the ticket. I hope that now since she had gotten her case withdrawn from the court (damn right she fought it!) she'll have a little more courage to board that 5:35 out of Mount Joy again. Maybe one day I'll have to get up that much earlier again if it will help her overcome her fears to have a train buddy again. N.B. It's too bad I can't be as passionate about the ticket my dad got for failing to stop while they were on their way to the courthouse today, but as someone who doesn't drive, I can't say that I relate!
