I have to admit I did that in Surfers Paradise a few years back. In my defence I was unable to change lanes to avoid the puddle, so I made the most of it.
It was during schoolies so there were about 10 excited young kids waiting to cross the road at the lights.... aaaaabsolutely sheeted with water. Funniest thing ever.
remember driving home a few years back during school holidays, it was warm, but it had rained and some kids were standing next to a large puddle pointing and shouting at me to drive through it and spray them with water.....I of course obliged and everyone was smiling by the end of it lol

But seriously why is it an offense to drive on the road, in your lane, doing the speed limit..... get fined for the sake of getting fined?
Because it is dangerous, moronic behaviour. Not only does it cause the pedestrians to be soaked and inconvenienced, it has the potential to cause a serious accident and injury to bystanders or other road users. The possibility of the driver losing control when one pair of wheels hits water and the other pair does not can not be overlooked.
I understand the driver is potentially facing a big fine......the bigger the better as far as I'm concerned.
