Filtering is allowed in the UK, and I often do it - commuting to and from work through rush hour is such an awesome thing when the traffic is at stand still, but you aren't!
That said, I tend to only do so if the traffic around me is going less than fifteen to twenty miles per hour, and even then not much more than five to ten miles an hour faster than that same traffic. Not worth the risk of a driver changing lanes unexpectedly, or another driver taking offence at another individual being able to best the traffic they can't - and pulling in to tighten the gap.
Amusing story about when a white van did that to me and made difficult my filter. The motorcycle behind me - actually a policeman on a police bike - told me to carry on, I'd done nothing wrong: but he was going to have a word with the van about his dangerous driving. Ah, I do like karma.
