PLYMOUTH, England -- British police said reckless driving charges are possible for a woman who drove through a puddle to soak children and then posted video of it on the Internet.
Devon and Cornwall Constabulary officers said videos posted to Facebook and YouTube depict Kerry Callard, 29, purposefully driving through the puddle in Plymouth, England, Oct. 8 to soak a group of children waiting for their school bus, the Daily Mail reported.
The video was taken by Callard's partner, Alec Goff, 28, who was a passenger in the vehicle.
Sgt. Gary Watson said Callard voluntarily came into the police station for questioning during the weekend and could face reckless driving charges.
"It could have potentially been that as well as splashing them, they ran them over, and then we would have had six or seven people dead at the roadside," Watson said.
Callard said the children asked to be splashed.
"The kids were actually calling to us to splash them," she said. "They were having fun in the bad weather. The fun factor is mostly gone from life these days but they were playing in puddles, like kids always have done.
If the kids weren't saying 'Splash me, splash me,' I certainly wouldn't have done it. I'm not a serial splasher."
