The situation where the overtake was on but you noticed a sign indicating a road to the left, is a difficult one to call. If you had space to complete the overtake within half the distance to the junction, then yes, the overtake was on as there's little chance of a vehicle emerging and reaching your return point, before you get there. But if you can't return to your side of the road by half the distance to the junction then the overtake is a risky one.

Roads on the right are the killer ones. Roads on the left I wouldn't necessarily be quite so pessimistic about - though it becomes more of an issue with large vehicles.
