This applies unless the lapped traffic is excessively bad... as in a few seconds a lap off your pace.

This is how i do it, and it always works every time, i have not hit a lapped car for a year at least.

Hope this helps,

So if I drive through you this weekend because you are slow and on my usual line that will be ok?
