Rules with rugby games have to be strictly adhered to for the game to function properly.

Strict rules are also very much needed for safe driving.

When we pass our driving test, we must recite every rule to the examiner before we are allowed to drive alone on the road.

Yet when we are driving alone, some folk become selective to which rules they choose to ignore.

Especially speed limits. Every rule is there because it is needed. Like ‘rungs' on a ladder. You can't miss some of them out. They are all needed.

Rugby is a game played for fun only but still requires strict rules to function properly. Safe driving on the roads can only be accomplished if ‘all' the rules are obeyed by everybody.
