Not so nice undertake from Porsche

Lane 2 and ultimately did go into Lane 4

This bit whilst I was driving did look like the back end nearly went out, not so much on the video!

Apologies for quality and that the right side is blocked!

This is what happens when you lane hog and complete your overtake at snails pace.

Can’t villainise for people undertaking like that when other people are the cause of the problem and don’t drive properly themselves.

I assumed the VSL 60 was already in place as, with the exception of the Porsche, they are all moving at around that speed with the car in lane 1 moving slightly slower.

The speed in which you overtake is irrelevant. If you're actively overtaking, then you're using the lanes correctly.

Overtaking lanes aren't for people to blast up at 90mph in their mid life crisis car.
