Mr. Rosen never stated the total number killed in a four year period, as Mr Bauman wrongly alleges, was 392. Mr. Rosen fully recognizes that DOT is referring to average cyclist KSI per year.

[...]

The way I extrapolated for the fifth year, 2015 was to take the four year average of 392 and divide it by four. I arrived at 98. I added the 98 to 392 and arrived at 490 average killed per year for the five year period. Then I compared 365 to 490. 490 is 34 percent higher than 365. How is that methodology incorrect?

Are you serious? If it's 392 KSI per year, then dividing it by four gives you a 3-month average. Adding it to the yearly average just gives you the average per 15 months. What you wrote is nonsensical.
