    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loose_wheel_nut_indicator

    Should a lug nut become loose, the pointer will move in line with the movement of the lug nut, i.e. the tips no longer point to each other. The wheel nut indicators allow not only a quick and efficient check of the wheels by the driver, but also by the control authorities. In addition, the inspection can be easily documented with a photo.
