Uh, no, pretty sure it is legally your responsibility to be safe to everyone around you when driving. If you can't do that, don't drive a car.

Even to suicidal people that jump in front of cars on purpose? BS

Yes.

If you're operating a piece of heavy machinery at high speeds, "But they ran into road!" is not an excuse.
