I like this idea insofar as it aids the idea of someone who is truly rational being competent in all aspects of life, because there isn't a reason a highly intelligent individual should be particularly bad at many things. Also, it's so easy to not be late that doing so consistently signals extreme issues (severe lack of care, or very unintelligent), and I think a rational individual understands how small actions can effect others emotionally and therefore is very careful about their actions. However, I think people being late is only a result of poor prediction skills in unusually low intelligent people, it seems like usually its just a result of procrastination & short sighted preferences which probably come from lifestyle as a whole.
