Is it right to pass laws to protect people from themselves?

For example, should coffee be required to be labeled "may be hot?" Should small quantities of legal drugs (except antibiotics) be available without prescription for personal use? After all if a person abuses them, it only hurts themselves? Should adults be required to wear bike helmets and seat belts? These are just examples but I mean in general, are we that dumb and/or naive as a society that we need the government to protect us from ourselves?
