My son's mate supposedly was given am on the spot fine the other day because his car still had several inches of snow on the roof whilst he was driving. I hadn't heard of this before, what road rule would it come under?

Some snow whether it's on cars or anywhere else has now turned to ice and when that comes off it can cause damage as well as obscure visibiliy.
yes its true they are actually doing this! there was a big how do u do on the radio and tele a couple of weeks ago x
like everything else do do with driving its just common sense to clear the snow from the roof of your car as it falls down over your windscreen when you break blocking your view in front of you while you put your wipers on to wipe them away
and also it puts too much pressure on your wipers and may cost you money not just in fines but in replacing the damaged wiper arm/motor
in the end is it worth it to drive with snow on your roof I know it can be fun to watch but at the same time it can be a hazard to others
