Break, as a rule (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

violate

'break as a rule' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for violate that I've seen before include "Contravene" , "Transgress" , "Treat with great disrespect" , "Desecrate, despoil" , "Abuse" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
