I always apply Chesterton’s fence before breaking rules and regulations: if I see what the rule intends to accomplish, I can make sure to accomplish the same thing in another manner (walk across the street even if there’s a red light if there are no cars around). If I don’t see the point of the rule, I’m hesitant to break it.
