Default dropped kerb / offroad parking : planning permission (and refusal!)

In an earlier contribution to this discussion,

Even if you get it agreed our local council quoted me £800 just to
lower the kerb - I figured its cheaper to lay the drive and leave the
kerb as is - been working for me for 5 years no probs!



I have heard it claimed (here, I think) that you are breaking the law if you
drive over a footpath which *doesn't* have a dropped kerb. Don't know
whether it's true - but it would be worth checking.
