Yes Richard! Those flip over rings definitely have a right and wrong way to flip/lock them. RoadMaster puts a WARNING section in their instructions and what-not to alert you to this affect. I’m sure, though, like so many things, this small little detail goes unnoticed or even ignored.

I was paranoid having heard rumors of vandals pulling pins. Locks are not a part of my safety and escape plan, so like you, I do a safety check anytime we depart after being parked with our TOAD still attached. Sad.
