Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, after checking that no vehicle is traveling in the opposite direction.

Yes. On a road with one lane in each direction, you may use part or all of the oncoming lane to pass the moped after checking that no one is coming toward you. You must leave at least 1.5 meters of clearance, not 1, and outside built-up areas you must travel at least 20 km/h below the speed limit.
