Fine, undertaking is wrong, but I did it safely to get by someone who shouldn't have been in the fast lane.
To me it was an indignant, holier than thou 'you shouldn't undertake' flash.
I believe alot of drivers suffer from this mentality.

Yeh, i too encounter this type all the time on my commute. Their bad lane discipline doesnt even cross their minds. they dont wonder why a bike undertook them. They just think that they saw us do something naughty and flash at us.
Its the vehicular wag of the finger i think.
so i wag this back
Followed by a gesture to suggest they should move over a lane. And they flash again and stay in the lane they really dont need to be in.
