Is that different than "drunk" ?
I get your point. They may or may not be drunk. I'd think they may be, but to what degree, it's not clear.
According to the Fatality Analysis Reporting System, drunk bicyclists cause 24% of bicycle fatalities, and I also have a report (that I'll dig out) on fatalities to cyclists in my province where I was surprised to see just how many cyclists died while drunk. Couple that up with all the drunk drivers that kill cyclists and it's hard not to feel the impact being drunk on the road makes.
