All at an average speed . Hadn't overtaken the HGV for two junctions.
Did the bus also take 2 junctions?There's always something up ahead to overtake at some point, if the OP would have had time to pass on the inside then the MLM had space to move left and should have done so. It may be convenient/easy to just stay in the middle lane because there is a vehicle somewhere ahead that you will pass at some point but it's also lazy/inconsiderate when the LH lane is clear and could be used.

With all due respect to your profession, what difference does that make? If the bus was driving badly it's OK for the copper to do the same?

Exactly. There's always something up ahead to overtake at some point, if the OP would have had time to pass on the inside then the MLM had space to move left and should have done so.

But don't forget, attack is the best form of attack on here

Twice in May and once again yesterday.That's about the same frequency I see Police cars patrolling the A3/M3.
Just need more out there pulling these morons over, but it's a bit like trying to get rid of an ant nest by treading on the odd ant when you spot one.
Based on the posted picture, that looks like a complete non-story to me!
The OP would have supported their story a lot better had they taken a picture of the Police van sitting in lane 2 with absolutely no other traffic on the road ahead of it.
As it is, it seems to be a very weak attempt at Police bashing!

Just a bit of irony. But as you've mentioned it, he was sat in that lane for two junctions; is there an applicable exemption I'm missing?
