If not, if the person is travelling at 70-80, you change lane, then you drive at normal speed, it is not overtaking. You are driving normally but he is slow. Then no car ahead so you filter out again. You are not wrong to change lane either. Unless he is on the extreme left lane and you cut thru him on left then that is something reckless and inconsiderate. Or if you had used the shoulders...it is driving on shoulders.

Er... Emperor, if I'm not wrong, the extreme left lane in the states is the same as our extreme right lane- meant for over taking and travelling fast.....

Inconsiderate only if you do something that caused someone on the left to avoid/slow down for you cos you anyhow overtake, or because you dun like the fellow hogging you and you overtake but at snail's pace causing him to slow down etc etc that show poor consideration for others. If you have nothing of that sort, you should write in for a thorough investigation.

Come and drive over here and see for yourself how inconsiderate alot of drivers are here.
Just yesterday morning, a bloody cab blocked a whole line of cars on the right lane even in front of him is totally clear, and i really mean totally clear.

Either road hog, but "drift" between 2 lanes, or try to play games with you.

Most of the local road annoyances I can deal with, even the right lane road hoggers, but when the friggin' Merc drivers in their big *** E or S-classes start throwing their weight around on the roads, I feel like employing a personal guided missile system to take their butts out!
