The school says if not for the driver's quick actions, things could've been a lot worse.
"Ms. Janet, when there's a child in need, she steps up," said Imagine Schools of West Melbourne Principal Brian Degonzague."It was spontaneous. It looked like something that could happen to any vehicle," said Degonzague.
Imagine said the fire destroyed the onboard camera. The only documentation of the incident is from a neighbor's phone. ''Ms. Janet is a very humble person. When I spoke to her about it, she said, 'Brian, I did what I did because I love my kids.' She doesn't want the spotlight on her, but what she did was pretty incredible,'' said Degonzague.
