Explanation

For answer  A 

Turns can be achieved also when the luggage is transported on the roof of the motor vehicle, but its stability can be affected, because the center of gravity is higher. For this reason, it is recommended that the turns be performed with reduced speed to maintain control over the vehicle.


For answer  B 

Storing the luggage on the roof of the motor vehicle raises the center of gravity, which can reduce stability, especially in side wind conditions. This modification of the balance of the vehicle can negatively influence its behavior during the movement.


For answer  C 

The braking distance can increase depending on the weight of the luggage transported, but it cannot be reduced. A greater mass requires additional effort for stopping the vehicle, which leads to an increase of the distance necessary for braking.


The correct answer is: B
