How can I prevent javascript from submitting a form on a script error?

I am trying to debug a javascript problem, but the problem happens when submitting a form. I see a javascript error briefly in the console window, then the form gets submitted.

Is there a way to make the default not to submit the form, so I can see the script error before I get sent to the form submit page?

The code is using jquery with a 

$('#form').on('submit', function() {
    // validation code with script error somewhere
});
