I am aware of the tow hook in the back, however if I were to end up where I cannot easily access the trunk, such as this driver, I would be helpless.

2. For the rude members: there’s no need to express every thought that limps across your mind, especially when your “advice” is unsolicited and lacks any value. I did not ask for opinions on the appearance of my car.

Thank you everyone for the helpful replies! I decided to go with a strap that has a disconnecting anterior attachment that can be replaced by a hook should the strap fail.
The tow hook in the trunk can be attached to the front or rear attachment point behind the bumper covers. If you are worried about an unlikely scenario in which you can’t get the trunk open to retrieve the tow hook, just store it in your glove box instead... Some people definitely went overboard with their responses, but your original post made it sound like you were going to use public streets as your own personal test track, which would be highly inconsiderate to the safety of other others on the road.
