On a curve with reduced visibility where the directions of travel are clearly delimited and separated, is it permitted to overtake?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

As a general rule, traffic regulations prohibit overtaking on curves and hill crests with reduced visibility. However, there is a key exception: overtaking is permitted provided that the directions of traffic are clearly delimited (for example, with double solid lines or a median) and the maneuver is carried out without invading the opposite direction at any time. The answer 'No, in any case' is incorrect because it ignores this exception, and 'Yes, always provided it is done with caution' is incorrect because caution is not enough if the opposite lane is invaded without visibility.
