[Forester] uses the studies cited over and over to reach conclusions that none of the original researchers made.
So? It is common scientific practice to compare, combine and contrast the results of multiple studies to synthesize new conclusions. It is the practice of assembling evidence that supports a conclusion.

What you fail to do is identify a single specific conclusion of Forester's, summarize the evidence he cites to support that conclusion, and explain why you believe that specific conclusion is not supported. Absent that, your vague criticisms amount to accomplishing nothing other than being an expression of your negative feelings about the man.

Note the lack of any definition or even recording of accident severity.
So? Note the lack of you citing any conclusions that Forester has reached for which accident severity is relevant.
