Correct answer
No, it is forbidden.
No. You must check that the manoeuvre can be made without danger or obstruction; if visibility prevents this, do not start. Signalling or seeing no oncoming vehicle does not establish safety. U-turns have their own prohibitions; do not confuse them with every overtaking exception.
