Original Note:
The HWC states that pedestrians (which includes someone pushing a bike as per Crank v Brooks [1980] RTR 441) should use the pavement. As for Criminal Damage; the person would be liable for a civil claim, but a criminal charge has various elements that must be present. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_traffic_laws https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/rules-for-pedestrians-1-to-35 https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/criminal-damage
