The ruling on one who dies as a result of street racing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is one who dies as a result of street racing considered a suicide?

Answer:
A person who dies as a result of street racing is considered to have caused his own death, and he bears sin for that. Allah the Exalted said:
and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction [by refraining]وَلَا تُلْقُوا بِأَيْدِيكُمْ إِلَى التَّهْلُكَةِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:195]
This is throwing oneself into destruction. Yes.
