It would be difficult to attribute *any* harm at all to cars parked on,

So you're not concerned about blind people, parents with buggies etc?

Flagstones are a disappearing aspect of the urban landscape simply because irresponsible drivers break them, imposing costs on the local authority.

Small cars do not break correctly laid flagstones, ever. The damage is frequently due to wagons with high axle weights and the flagstones frequently are laid incorrectly on a soft substrate.
