Default RLJ cyclist commits road rage attack

The cyclist jumped a red light, a van managed to miss to him, and the
cyclist turns nasty at the van driver, ungrateful *******.

That last one:

QUOTE:
The 42-year-old, who has asked not to be named, is about as sober and
careful a cyclist as they get. He has spent seven years as a cycle
instructor and as a volunteer leader of public bike rides.
ENDQUOTE

In what way does that description paint a picture of a "sober" (meaning
sedate, careful, considerate and law-abiding) cyclist?

There is absolutely no necessary connection between the one thing and
the other.

Just imagine what conclusions some (perhaps including "the 42-year-old")
would draw from a description of a driver as having spent seven years as
an instructor and volunteer leader in car rallies.
