Correct answer
No, it is prohibited because the manoeuvre cannot be carried out safely.
No, under Article 87.1.a: visibility is insufficient to complete or abandon the manoeuvre safely. Lateral clearance or entering only part of the opposite lane does not remove the ban. This case involves opposite-lane entry; the exception for clearly separated directions requires overtaking without entering it.
