Yes, if you have a good reason. Such a defence is called necessity.
For example, if the sign says not to speed, but your aunt is dying from an overdose of advil pills, then yes, it is right to speed to get to the hospital.
Note that you still must drive safely, even if you are speeding.

Disobeying the law is not typically recommended, as it can lead to legal consequences. However, some individuals may choose to disobey unjust laws as a form of civil disobedience to bring attention to social issues or injustices. It's important to weigh the potential consequences of disobeying the law with the reasons for doing so.

You disobey any law at your peril. The very essence of our system of government is that citizens are called upon to be governed by rules and law.

If you feel strongly enough to become a test case, do what you think is right for you, but .. . be prepared to pay the consequences.
