In and of itself, it probably isn't. However, there are many who would likely take things that way. They may believe that they have the right to do stupid or dangerous things, and that you butting in is being nosy, bossy, controlling, and treating them like they are stupid. Adults should have the right to take risks without strangers who are not authority figures trying to put limits on them.

On the other hand, those saying such things are probably trying to be nice, and probably have the person's best interests in mind. You can argue that if someone is about to step in front of a vehicle, it would be a matter of basic human decency to grab them or shout out to them to alert them of the danger. The greater question is who has this right? Should it be all people, just authority figures and family, or nobody.

So overall, this depends on the person and their own views and experiences.
