They would need to be broken down to pieces not larger than around 40mm and they would need to be mixed with sand or fines to eliminate the voids - this should make them more or less ok for a patio, but I'd be more wary about using them under a driveway. The best use would be to smash them up and have them spread as a thin layer that could be topped off with proper sub-base material.
