had the day of today with my little boy walked up to the post office and walked past this, who ever spec'd these flags for pavement use next to a main rd, obviously lots of trucks etc have rum over them.

In Highways Inspector mode, that first photie isn't a fail: it's a lovely bit of crazy paving!
Although the flags are broken, there's no obvious trip hazard, so it isn't a priority. You have to bear in mind that, before the 1980s, flags were all we had in modular paving, and it wasn't uncommon to lay 2½ inchers next to the kerb line.
