Yeah, splitting lanes @ 80mph is stupid, but in all honesty, the Accord driver is just as much at fault for not being aware of their surroundings. I only split lanes at intersections, when everyone else is stopped, and only if I'm at the back of the pack. If I get rear ended by some moron not paying attention, I could get seriously hurt. I could even die. If a car gets rear ended, it's usually nothing more than whip lash. I'm going to assume the dude was riding a sport bike aka crotch rocket?
In my situation, I had 3 choices.
Let this angry dude control the situation (No way is that ever happening)
Fight him
Leave
When I was younger, I would have probably puffed my chest out and told him he needed to get back in his car and leave before I got angry. Now that I'm older, I don't need any of that B.S. I chose to just leave because I don't need to get in trouble for road rage just because this dude sucks at driving. Besides, I literally got the last laugh haha.
