Middle lane hoggers are a pain in the bum, however there is NO law against 'undertaking'. At best you could be done for careless or dangerous driving but Plod need a significant amount of evidence to persue this, just passing someone whilst driving with full car and attention on teh left would not be enough. BTW , this is from a traffic plod biker I know so is absolutely correct.

The M66 is mainly dual carriageway is it not Entwisi ? apart from the crawler lane coming up to Bury ? The Highway Code does appear to have rules though. Still can't see why middle lane hoggers would be a 'pain in the bum' to
you though, when so easy to move into outside lane..just for lorry drivers who are not allowed in this lane.
' Course it is dangerous to undertake as never know when middle lane driver will move into inside lane as they will not be looking at their mirror to confirm anyone in this lane as usually nervous drivers, gripping wheel and only watching car in front.
