I just saw this clip for the first time. IMO the rider was going too fast for the volume of traffic and her position; namely, slow moving heavy traffic to her right and other traffic to her left that she was also attempting to pass. She had no escape route in the event of cager stupidity, which is rampant.
My rule of thumb is that when put in a position where I must rely on cagers to do the right thing AND I have no escape route, I slow down in order to lengthen the reaction time. Had she done that she would have been able to brake in time.
