Law, unlike other rules, has consequences that are handed down by state, local, and federal governments. You could have a rule at work that you could break that could get you fired, and that would be the end of it, but if you break a law and are prosecuted, your punishment will come from the government. If you attempt to avoid the punishment (don't pay a ticket, skip bail, etc) there would be further consequences

Laws are enforced by governments, which are the only bodies in the United States that hold the legal use of coercive force. Laws have the power of force behind them, while rules do not.

law is the rules accepted by an entire country and thus are to be followed strictly and are severely punishable whereas other rules are just benchmarks made for some kind of discipline among people
