Good question but I think the answer is obvious and therefore I would 
assume it applies for most cases.  I've often seen situations where 
someone will knowingly do what they are not supposed to do and run on 
the premise that, "I will do what I want and then ask for forgiveness 
later".  Personally, I prefer to play by the rules rather than to see 
how far I can bend them.
