It‘s physical.

Selftighening driving forward. More speed, more torque. And: don‘t overtorque when fitting. Keep the nut greased.

As I can see there are some guys around driving with more than 100mp/h backwards. Wow.

Pour hot water on the nuts and they come off easily. I keep a tin bucket in the car so that I can drain hot water from the radiator at the roadside. I jack up the front of the car the do this. Sometimes I have to whack the radiator drain tap with the copper hammer, but it saves damaging the wheel nuts. I have to carry a gallon of water to refill the radiator, together with a pint of anti-freeze. It pays to be prepared”
