Would be different if he smashed into someone's property but it's just a bus stop, no one actually cares about it.
Are you for real Jason, or just fishing?

You're definitely on a wind up now.

Why should the tax payer cover there bus shelters when they don't use them in the same why there's no reason for bus users to pay car road tax. Anyway this is getting off the point.

Just in case you genuinely are not taking the piss Jason.
Bus stops and shelters, like other street furniture, are the property and responsibility of the council in which they are located.
Repair, maintenance and replacement of these items are all catered for by the same.
Funding to carry out these operations is sourced by taxing residents in the parish or borough etc.
So, obviously any additional and unforeseen costs incurred for example by such incidences as vandalism, or damage caused by reckless, dangerous, or careless and inconsiderate driving (whereby neither the offender, nor an insurer have been available to foot the bills for repairs to damage caused by their client), have to be funded in the same manner.

As if there's all this kick off over a fucking bus stop. Get a fucking grip. Every time you park over a kerb on the pavement to try and keep a small road clear you put weight on the flags those flags eventually crack. Guess what your council pays for that. Gang of sad self righteous bastards

All the ones near to mine are plastered with Mersey travel. Pretty sure they're not paid for by a council..

I don't park on kerbs Dee.
(don't want to ruin my wheels and tires)
And bus stops are almost certainly very dear btw.
I damaged a two foot section of very low red-brick wall and a street name sign when I hit sand by some road works, over twenty years ago.
The bill levied to my insurers for repairs carried out, by the council, came to nearly seventeen hundred quid.
I wouldn't mind betting that you'd get little change from ten grand for a new bus stop, shelter and bench today.

Not really. You should have a protected policy.
Plus this won't be an isolated incident.
All circumstances such as this one add up and in the long run, every one that pays council tax and car insurance will pay more.
Btw John, is your tag for stealing petrol, or something additional?
How can you afford £100 bets, M5s and the cost of raising a child, if your financial position compels you to steal fuel?

My missus uses public transport to go into central London for work. She still pays to drive a car aswell.
Your argument is completely idiotic.
I reject this. She uses both so she pays for both I see no issue with this whatsoever.
I don't use both yet supposedly should pay for both. You can't prove the rule with the exception.

Well I live in a remote area and there is no bus shelters the bus just stops and let's people on. So either I don't fund it anyway or I'm funding it for a place I don't even live for something I don't even use, makes sense I suppose.

Did you have the job when you were placed on the tag?
Did you have it when you were stealing fuel?

When I bought the car I had a good job and I don't understand where this stealing fuel is coming from. I've got a job again now just not as well paid.

I don't use the pavement though. Only the pavement users, like those pesky bus users with their damn shelters, should be paying for the pavement going by the logic presented in this thread.

a) Parking on a kerb
b) Writing off a car and a bus shelter and leaving the scene
c) Doing 35 in a 30
