^ I've seen lots of people do this.
The most recent (yesterday) was a courier (with a very badly buckled rear wheel) who did it to me in my Luton van, as I was changing lanes, in the Limehouse Link. Not only did he undertake me (I slowed down because he was too close for my conservative comfort and we were going downhill), but he was also moving into my lane! I easily could have killed him, as Lutons are very unforgiving when it comes to unprotected cyclists. I caught him at the lights and explained what he'd done, I dont think he took it in, tbh. I later saw him walking his bike along a sparse and lonely stretch of the Highway...
