Correct answer
Yes, observing the other rules and without entering opposing traffic.
Yes. Article 87 prohibits overtaking in tunnels when only one lane is available for the overtaking vehicle’s direction. Here there are two and no opposing traffic is entered; all other overtaking requirements must also be met. The opposite direction need not also have two lanes, and separated directions alone are insufficient if your direction has only one.
