How to use "Scofflaw" in context?
The term "scofflaw" is used to describe someone who operates outside the law. A scofflaw may drive without a license, or break other serious laws. In some cases, scofflaws can be fined or even arrested.
Scofflaws often annoy law enforcement officials by doing things that don't require a license or that are technically illegal but negligible. For example, a scofflaw might ride a bike on the sidewalk.
However, some scofflaws do much more serious things. A scofflaw may traffic drugs or firearms without a license. Or, a scofflaw may plant evidence to get someone else off the hook.
