It's probably not acceptable but plenty of people get away with it. I choose to wait with the traffic, but it's up to everyone to make and stick by their decisions.
Provided everyone heading east has passed through, there's certainly time to nip down the lane before the lights change, so no wonder people give it a go. Where was the bloke trying to overtake the bus?
He was undertaking it. He squeezed through just where the two lanes narrow immediately to one (the left lane stops at the works entrance), where the keep right sign is.
