Narrow Escape - Multi-Car Collision

I just happened to let off the brake and accelerate at the right moment to not get hit. Others were not so lucky. Happened at 6:09am on May 15, 2019.

It was dark and my rear window was covered in dust from the recent rains, so the rear quality is not the best.

What I didn't say in the video because it would have been too hard is that when I stopped behind the truck (saying "what are we stopping for?"), I glanced in my rear-view mirror as a quick check to see if the car behind me was going to stop. Of course I saw he was pretty much stopped already so I didn't worry about him hitting me. So then I just keep looking forward to move when traffic moved. I heard some sounds (the crashing) but it was garbled in with the radio and I thought it was coming from the tow trucks and stuff on the side of the road. I didn't look back until the vehicle came up on my side and I saw some damage on it. At that point I checked the rear-view and, with it being 6am and pretty dark, I could only see the car behind me had stopped and the SUV from the left lane stopping there as well. I could not see all the other carnage. It wasn't until I got home and checked the footage that I saw all that had happened. FYI, I had to really brighten up the video so you could see everything.
