No. Articles 78 and 79 require checking that other road users will not be endangered or obstructed and prohibit a U-turn when this cannot be checked. Signalling or reducing speed does not remove inadequate visibility. This does not require asserting that every overtake is always prohibited on every bend: overtaking has its own rules and exceptions.
