flouters
Those who disobey
Flouters are people who openly disregard rules, laws, or conventions.
The word carries a sense of defiance—flouters don't just break rules quietly, they do so with visible contempt or indifference: The flouters of the dress code showed up in jeans and sneakers.
See flout.
