The sheer majority of them have brakes, which sorts that out. Fixies might not have brakes as such, but you can put backpressure on the pedals which will stop the bike eventually. Some BMX trick bikes haven't got brakes, but as long as they're not ridden downhill or in traffic that's not much of a problem.
