Don't kill, lie, cheat or steal. That will pretty much cover most of it. You don't need to be a lawyer to function in society.

Pretty much all layers of the American justice system are fucked, from the corrupt legislators, gamified prosecutors, bigoted juries and automaton judges.
A normal justice system has multiple checks and balances to keep undeserving people out of jail. In the US these have all been eroded and the result is the highest incarceration rate in the world.

Cheat is a great one, do you understand your contractual undertakings and consumer protection enough to protect your rights?
Do you know case law well enough to resolve disputes?
Its not just about mot going to jail, it's also about not being taken advantage of.
