For me it would depend on the situation and I am unsure how I would react with such an important and immediate decision. I would assume I would break a law to save a loved one but it may depend on the situation and the severity of the law and how I would be saving the person. If I knew the person was guilty of a crime and they were running from the law. I'm not sure if I would still help in the same way. Saving a loved one can also imply different things such as saving them from being put in prison or saving their life. I think my response would change drastically between these two circumstances.

At first thought I was going to say "Yes, absolutely!" but as I read some of your posts, I realized I'm with the group that says it depends.... For example, if I found out my friend was arrested for murder, I wouldn't perjure myself to give them a valid alibi, even if it was to save their life from execution. However if my friend had a hunting accident and was shot, I'd break a bunch of traffic laws to rush my friend to the hospital.
