    Probably not, but, seriously, what does it matter? Everyone here, including you obviously, know what it means.

    Here you go

    (informal) to overtake on the wrong side.
    I hate people that try and undertake on the motorway.

    Wiktionary

    Hmmm, not exactly what I would call an authoritative source.

    Why do you have a problem with the word 'undertaking'?

    Did you not understand it and couldn't find a definition for it?

    NEWS FLASH: the interwebs full of words like that.

    I shouldn't have wasted google's time looking it up on your behalf.
    You're welcome.

    I googled it myself but really didn't waste too much time reading through all the known definitions. Probably an Irish thing I guess...;)
