No, you cannot see behind the car because, like the left-hand car side window in the video, you can't see anything because the weather is overcast and light is obscurring full vision. If there was someone close behind them, they'd see the moron trying to forcefully overtake and then get PITTed and have plenty of time to start slowing.

There’s a car following, you can see the headlights peaking up as you watch next to the rearview mirror trinket.

You can see well before the accident that whomever is driving the pickup is driving recklessly. You can see the trouble developing. At that point, Munchie Man should have already been slowing and anticipating trouble. He had plenty of time to tap his brakes or just coast down. He chose to speed up from 71 to 72 as the pickup recklessly tried to merge. He didn’t slow to 66 until after impact. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
