Baloney! I understand PERFECTLY what Forester is saying and has written. I don't need to search though the works of a notorious and habitual fabricator of safety data and nonsensical risk analyses to search for a few pearls of wisdom.
Forester has earned the complete disrespect he gets for any and all his quantitaive claims about cycling safety, especially as it relates to his totally fabricated fantastic safety recod of Vehicular Cyclists. Forester's track record for bending the truth to fit his agenda goes back 30 years. You want to believe a habitual fabricator and distorter of the facts (in relation to bicycling safety), be my guest and continue to have problems with "misunderstandings."
