Its a good thing to follow the rules. Going by the book creates discipline and prevents chaos in the society. But sometime there are certain circumstances where its not wrong to break the rule. Take for example, a person is heavily injured in an accident, its mandatory to lodge an FIR before doctor can proceed. Now here is a case where time is very important. This patient can die in absence f instant medical attention. Doctor can work on his own discretion by breaking the rules by starting the medication first and legal procedure later. Another case, your traffic rule asks you to keep your vehicle speed within 55km/hour. Your house is on fire and your only kid is trapped in it.
You need to get there as soon as possible. You might just ignore the red signal and cross the speed limit. If you can save your child this will be a decision you won't regret for rest of your life. These examples though very specific in nature reveals one very important point unexpected circumstances demand unexpected actions.
Now some people find it fashionable and very cool to break the rules. They believe that as James Bond has "licence to kill" they have "licence to break the rule". They might be doing to this to look different from ordinary people. But they don't realize that they are disrupting the balance of the system and sooner or later the system is going to punish them.
Another case which needs working beyond boundaries is when we are developing new projects, new ideas. Sometimes innovation demands breaking the rules then only we can explore the unexplored territories. In that case again breaking rule is not bad. So whenever we are going to break a rule there should be a well justified reason and not any nonsensical excuse.

I don't think rules are meant to be broken. Rules are there to make the living more comfortable and organised and hence make life easier. Following rules are necessary for development. Otherwise there will be chaos everywhere. Powerful shall dominate the world. Even we see that those countries where rules are followed are much more developed than those where people believe in "rules are meant to be broken". Discipline is hard to develop but is key to success. Only by following the rules can we lift us and make a society which provides same opportunity to everyone regardless of their power and position. And of course there always will be some rules which won't be right, and those we must oppose. But those will be very few, which should not be the excuse to break others.

In my point of view each and every rule that we are going to face in our life is need not to be followed. There should be some rules to be broken that too if we feel that we won't be misleaded from our way if we break them.
In some big institutions like colleges, schools etc. There will be lot of rules and regulations. We feel very thrilled if we break some rules. Of course there will not be much influence on us for breaking those regulations if we escape for authorities view.
These rules restrict some people from preventing others who intend to do a mistake.
So it is never a mistake breaking the rules for a good purpose.
Even Harry Potter, Hermoine Granger and Ron Weasley had broken the rules and earned a huge fame in their witch craft school (Hogwarts) as they did it for a good purpose.

This idiom shows the inability of proper implementation of rules and regulations of today's world. People have come to conclusion that rules nowadays are only transiently effective and are at their dearth after a few days or else they become totally against the people's perceptions and also towards the objective they were made for. So people tend to break them often and this has become a habit so commonly that it has become in people's views, all rules are imposed just to be broken.

Hello everybody, as per I'm concern my views are on the both sides that is on one hand approxmite all the rules made that are implemented are the stupid of the all, which always lead to the comparison or critisim of a person concern, but on the other hand the rules that are most significant and should must be followed for the well 80% of them are never implemented, So as per my conclusion the stupid rules are always meant to be broken.

Hellow my friends.
Well,I strongly believe that Rules are nothing but the systems related to our convenience. Every rule must have a valid reason or reasons behind it to follow. For instance, if an ambulance carrying a serious patient who needs immediate treatment, stops in a traffic point due to red signal, he could have died. So, there is no doubt that the traffic rule should be broken. According to me, in some situations some rules are meant to be broken, better than stick with it blindly. Because sometimes it can bring some good changes.

Just like a coin having two sides the rules also having two sides.For attaining success in any field the rules play a key role. for proper arrangment ,discipline rules and regulation are necessary.No doubt rules make our life on time.so the rules must be followed up by everyone to be regular one.But some rules which are of no meaning should be broken because until the old one rule broken up by us the new one will not be created .So the rules having no importance must be broken for the new one .

Rules are created to be followed. Everyone should follow the rules and regulation strictly. If the proper laws are followed than every thing will be in the well format way automatically. If you do anything against the rules, then you can also get punished. For eg, think, students who are paying fees manually, if they all directly rushes to the counter then they will get more time, and the one who has came first to pay fees might be at the end and the last one pushes and pay it first, this will be a wrong way and it will injustice for the one who came first so guys whats the big deal following the rules and maintain peace in the society.

I would like to introduce myself as harjeet singh and my brief views about the topic is given below:-.
Rule is necessary in every field of life. It is made to fallow not to break. Not even a single organization can work proparlly without rule and regulation. Let us take few eg of some field.
1. Army-if soldier not fallow rule and regulation then how will they fight to gather in a war.
2. School-if student not fallow rule & do activities like making noise in class room, flee from during exm, stand against teacher. Then how it will possible to make them a good citizen of a country.
3. Sports-if a sports man don't fallow the rule then how it will possible to play a good game.
4. A general eg you went to a govt office for making your domicile certificate, you stood at no 10 then certainly some boys come and stood up at first position one after another. Then what will rest of do?
These are the very few eg that I explained here. But all these thing matter in our life more then enough. Rule are made for maintaining law and order in a vill. , town, city, state, country, world and any organisation.
Rule give peace full life to each and every indivisual. And doing best by fallowing the set of rule is a matter of diginity and proud. Lastly I want to say that "rule are meant to fallow not to break".
READER GIVE ME POSITIVE RESPONSE WEATHER YOU ENDORSE OR NOT ?

Yes rules which have no foundation are meant to be broken, but not all rules like breaking single on road. Drunk and drive. Etc, rules are meant to bring discipline but when a rules overrides peoples life then its better to break that, . When old rules are broken then only we can find new rules which brings discipline and happiness.
