Rule 151, warns motorists to be aware, of cyclists passing on either side whilst in slow moving traffic. This is helpful, especially in heavily congested areas where cyclists often take to filtering and/or overtaking on the right to avoid the traffic.
This suggests that it is perfectly legal to filter.
So next time shout RULE 151 at the copper and cycle off happily into the sunset/roadblock.
