Annoying l'll grant you but no less so (& probably more) than the absolute plague of middle lane hoggers in their cars & vans. Lane discipline in the U.K. is appalling. Even on four lane carriageways they simply move out to the third lane.
I sincerely hope they don't reserve the inside lane for lorries or l'll never get anywhere.
As for the lorries, it's generally the driver being overtaken at fault for not knocking the cruise off momentarily to allow the outer vehicle to pass. There's no-one more pig-ignorant than a pig-ignorant lorry driver.
