Lane discipline
238: You should drive in the left-hand lane if the road ahead is clear. If you are overtaking a number of slower moving vehicles it may be safer to remain in the centre or outer lanes until the manoeuvre is completed rather than continually changing lanes. Return to the left-hand lane once you have overtaken all the vehicles or if you are delaying traffic behind you. Slow moving or speed restricted vehicles should always remain in the left-hand lane of the carriageway unless overtaking. You MUST NOT drive on the hard shoulder except in an emergency or if directed to do so by signs.
MT(E&W)R regs 5, 9 & 16(1)(a) & MT(S)R regs 4, 8 & 14(1)(a)

Empty 3-lane highway, and they're tootling in the right-hand lane. No problem. I would be driving along in the left-hand lane, and would continue my journey onwards past them without changing lane.
Unless they are running 3-abreast, can't see it happening (and even then there's the hard shoulder
)
This is all assuming they are travelling at 69.9 mph of course.
