To bring justice and order to a society. To settle the petty differences between men. Anything else is not law. Positive law is not law it is theory and sometimes not even that. If it is law then it is applicable to all. Murder is illegal because it harms others. Murder abrogates and derogates the rights of those murdered and thus it is wrong. This is not a positive law, this is a natural law that would be just as valid on Pluto or Saturn as it is here on planet Earth. Jaywalking laws are less applicable on distant planets and would differ greatly from planet to planet. Ironically, traffic laws differ from state to state in the United States, which makes the traffic laws not even theoretical and only a bad hypothesis. It is fine for the people to come together and agree to some form of regulation of traffic, this hardly makes that regulation law but merely suggestions on how we should drive. Prohibition of murder is not a suggestion it is the law. To arrest, try and convict a murderer is to put justice and order in. For lesser crimes or damages of rights there is tort law, whereby arbitration is sought to settle the differences between the parties involved. This is just and that is law.
Law is characterized by its rule-based nature, enforceability, authority derived from legitimate bodies, consistency, accessibility to the public, adaptability to societal changes, impartiality, the presumption of innocence, protection of rights, dispute resolution mechanisms, a hierarchical structure, and provisions for penalties or sanctions. These attributes collectively establish law's role in governing behavior within society, ensuring fairness, and safeguarding individual liberties. However, it's important to note that the specific characteristics of law can vary between different legal systems and jurisdictions.
1. Fair
2. Reasonable
3. Understandable
4. Enforceable

Common laws come from customs, rather than laws created by the courts. Common law has several characteristic features. These include trial by jury, the use of previous rulings to determine the outcome of cases, and the supremacy of the law.
The characteristics of criminal law are to provide order, issue punishments, and provide due process. Some exceptions include those which limit personal freedoms and conflict with religious beliefs.
