Both at fault but biker was an idiot riding across lanes, trying to argue with a supposed a-hole in a car, then he tried to break the mirror or such (0.49) just before the car driver knocks him down.
Whatever happened before, taking on a driver (alone) who apparently had tried to knock other bikers down earlier, who may have done something with his girl-friends car, then you break the law swapping lanes and over-taking and trying to do damage to the car - idiot - your on 2 wheels on a small vehicle - stay back and safe. It was only a matter of time at speed until the bike rider came off worse in that.

No
Flourescents would have just made him easier to see and possibly more annoying

look I don't think all car drivers are

blind,
distracted,
petty,
murderous lunatics...

but on a bike you should treat them as if they are

The Mustang would have knocked out this jerk long before it did but for the consideration that the knock-out would scratch up its spiffy paint job.

The wages of idiocy are the same as those of sin.

It's not going to get you a Mustang in the UK. £38k plus for a V8 auto. No test drive.

No thanks.
