Owner's description

Bike rack fell off of car on northbound interstate 294 less than 1/2 mile from the 127th street exit. I believe I set it up correctly. Pin was in and the knob was tightened. No accidents as traffic narrowly avoided the unit and bikes. IDOT showed up quickly to remove. I believe the safety pin is inadequate to hold the unit on. Pictures attached.
