Should you break the law?

Mona meets with professor Kenworthy Bilz to understand how laws shape our behaviors.

The obvious answer: no. Though you haven鈥檛 exactly committed to a life of crime if you jaywalk on an empty street. But if we bend the law on jaywalking, why not drunk driving? Well, there was a time when people thought drunk driving didn't really matter either. So what changed? How do we decide to follow a law or not? What even IS a law? Mona meets with social psychology of law professor, Kenworthy Bilz to understand how laws can (and can鈥檛) shape our behaviors.
