Correct answer

No, it would endanger the approaching vehicle.

No. There must be enough space and time to complete the manoeuvre safely without forcing others to change course or speed. The reason is the stated danger, not a rule that any oncoming vehicle, however distant, always prohibits overtaking. A broken line does not guarantee safety.
