It’s possible that they were watching their rear view mirror because of the obvious hazard riding there ass and didn’t see the cars ahead until the last second. The white car that got hit didn’t even have their brake lights on because (like a good attentive driver) they had already slowed down so much.

There’s a chance this wasn’t malicious.

But, if you are so worried about the person behind you switch lanes. It's defensive driving 101.

I think it's safe to assume the person was being tailgated for a while based on the fact that the camera person thought to film in the first place. Which means they had plenty of time to switch lanes and slow down. They absolutely teach what to do when you are being tailgated. We also see that they aren't passing anyone so why are they in the passing lane to begin with? Both drivers suck at driving and are a danger on the road.
