And yet...for all that...

There's an elementary school near me. They have a sign that declares: "20 mph when lights flash". The lights come on in the morning, at noon, and in the afternoon to coincide with the comings & goings of the kids. There is a city cop who regularly sits on a side street and monitors the flow of traffic. He invariably tags someone every day.

It can't get any more obvious or self-evident what is required here but there are still those whose minds are not right  ;)

"Sir, you're under arrest for mowing down 12 school children while driving distracted."

"But officer, I was reading the sign."
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson
