Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No.
No. At a change in road grade where visibility is blocked, you cannot see what is coming from the other side, so you cannot make sure the maneuver is safe, and it is prohibited. Not seeing anyone coming toward you right now is not enough, because a vehicle could appear at the top, like the truck in the image. The prohibition applies to U-turns as well as passing.
