To fear them for sure.

What do you think she'll do in the future if she sees someone poaching? If I were her I wouldn't report it, because I could wind up being charged for some other mistake I made.

Clearly she made a mistake. If she were trying to get away with anything she would not have readily admitted she had not passed the course. That's not how law breakers operate.

Good law enforcement is about more then enforcing the letter of the law.
The intent of the law must also be considered.
After she was interviewed by the Officer, I`ll bet he gleaned enough info from her to warrant the ticket. From here on she has two choices.. pay the ticket or let the Court decide. Either way she pays for her error.
