mate, take the opportunity and pull over so the kids can pee. stop walk around the vehicle. look whats around you. enjoy. you miss sooo much when you are driving due to your focus being on the road, conditions and if any, traffic. just a thought...

heck, I just drive with my lights ON, all of the time, in conditions I can't see, I stop, pull over, and activate flashing hazard lights, Heavy Rain, Snow, or Dust, it seems to work. amazingly others tear past at speed, no lights on, almost invisible..! be safe, be seen!

I make damn sure that the strap is attached to something significant on the recovered vehicle, if there is nothing...
