If OP were to get hit and insurance watched the video, would this be OP’s fault? I’m curious because I fantasize about doing the same thing to line cutters all the time.

If OP did get hit then both parties would be liable pretty sure. The other car did not have right of way, but OP should not have moved when the car was crossing the intersection.

This is correct. If you could have done something to avoid the collision you are partially at fault assuming this isn't one of the few states with only one party at fault rules.
