What is the difference between taking a few quick snaps in a bus station, against the owner's wishes, and taking photos inside the grounds at Saltmeadows? Both instances are criminal trespass, although I'd suggest people view the former less seriously.

This is not a Police State and anyone may take photographs in bus stations, on traffic islands and anywhere where it does not compromise the safety of any third party. It is not CRIMINAL trespass to take a photo in a bus station or even by entering a depot. Trespass becomes criminal only when entering railway property, dockyards or military bases where entry is restricted by statute. Otherwise trespass is only a criminal offence if damage is caused and standing on a footpath in a bus station to take a photo is perfectly acceptable and only a police officer could ask you to move if you were causing an obstruction. No Nexus or bus company official has any legal right to require you to move, ask for your details or detain you in any way if you are standing somewhere to take a picture.
