I did check that timestamp and as i said it might have been a possibilty, but as often as i watched that replay i am not sure he would have hit you if you had continued onwards in a safe manner.

You caused this accident in the first place and took away most of his responsibilty by making such an unexpected stop. Your brake axis is fully applied.

The junction is way further ahead and i have seen you take this corner before, your heavy braking can not be explained by braking for this corner.

Looking behind shortly does not mean you have to stop like you did, everyone one else can look briefly behind and still continue onwards without having the need to stop. And if you can't do that then i would suggest the virtual mirror.

To sum this up even in your best case scenario(him hitting you), you were at least partially to blame since, you stopping, massively amplified that accident. I still am not sure if he would have hit you though, you may seem to see it differently.
However that is not what this warning is solely about, if you can both be partially blamed for this accident then you can not fine a user for "causing an accident". You were both partially at fault.
And that is why i gave you this warning.
