Correct answer
No, because it requires entering the opposing-traffic area prohibited by the sign.
No. An ordinary moving lorry’s low speed does not permit breaching R-305 in this situation. The sign prohibits overtaking motor vehicles when doing so requires entering the opposing-traffic area. Article 88 provides specific cases, including certain immobilised vehicles not waiting because of traffic and specified slow users or vehicles; an ordinary lorry still moving does not qualify merely because it is slow.
