I am not an expert but I would worry about the car bouncing. I am what happens
if you hit a series of nasty potholes at speed? Could the car move forward
if you slam on the brakes? I would go for something more secure (in my eyes)
as if a bad thing is going to happen, it will happen to me. Like I said I am
no expert but I would want to secure at least 2 of the wheels, or more likely
all 4.
