His right to self destruction ends where it comes up against somebody elses right to be protected from him. Sure, if he crashes and dies without injuring anybody else, everybody's happy. If he runs over a pedestrian, or punts another cyclist into the path of an HGV, or even just scratches the paint on a street sign, all because he couldn't stop in circumstances where a person using a road legal bicycle could have done, his right to be a twat is irrelevant.
