The story

Toronto rush hour trains reward looking at phones. A rider looked at a face instead.

He stayed aboard, signaled others, and waited with the person until staff arrived.

What happened next

TTC and city human-interest notes keep logging these extra stops. A commute became first aid.

A lesson you can use this week

If someone slumps, stay. One missed stop is a cheap price.
