That is stupid.
Ok, so say you are riding sober and some drunk cyclist decides to crash right in front of you on the street with traffic around? You go over the top and get wracked, or you swerve into traffic and get hit.
How about if you are driving a car and there is a drunk cyclist in front of you.What do you do? Do you come to a stop to let him mosey all over the place? What about if he swerves right into your car? How would you feel if you killed a cyclist..even if he were drunk. Wonder if they would even run tests on him before they arrested you(or had all the other bikers come after you for killing a cyclist)
If you are not in total control of yourself and you are on a street, they need to be able to get you out of there.
