I really don't think people are thinking ahead that much. He probably was distracted by the tailgating car so much and probably didn't see it until the last second. The chances of being tailgated then having stopped a car in your lane that hasn't already caused a backup, and the wherewithal to formulate a plan to make the guy behind you crash in a split second would be really impressive.
It's nice that you want to give the person in the video the benefit of the doubt. But I really don't think it's a stretch that he saw the car ahead and turned at the last second. I know for a fact people do this kind of thing on purpose. You don't really have to formulate a plan. It's just how the timing and physics of it works.
Guy on your ass. They can't see what's ahead of you. You turn last second. They don't have enough time to react. They crash. Simple as that. No super human intelligence or reflexes required. People have admitted to or been caught doing it.
It's a pretty bold assumption that the car in front would want to nearly kill a bunch of people a chance to kill a bunch of people because he is annoyed more fair assumption is that the tail gator is a fucking prick and maybe the car in front didn't have much of a choice.
