If your actions don't affect others then you can express your freedom.
If you pile into another road user (human or metal) due to your actions then you may be considered negligent.
I'll defend your right to freedom of action, but not your freedom to be reckless with others.
I enjoy riding my bike, and I'd like others to enjoy my company and freedom.
