Changing permissions for /var/lib/docker (self.docker)

Is it a bad idea to recursively change the permissions for the /var/lib/docker directory? That directory is owned by root:root and the permissions are rwx--x---.

I'm hoping to be able to access my named volumes without using sudo so that I can easily back them up.

Only one way to find out :D

I mean in test, definitely in test not production I swear. I'm staying late working on unrelated projects.
