Vehicle loading

You are not using your empty roof rack for several weeks. Why is it worth removing it?

It makes the horn louder
It cuts wind resistance and saves fuel
Correct
It is illegal to leave one fitted
It improves the radio signal

Why?

Rule 98 of The Highway Code covers your load and its effect on the vehicle. Even an empty roof rack adds drag, so removing it when it is not needed cuts wind resistance and saves fuel, and there is less risk of forgetting a low bridge.
