Wind screen deflector collapses

On high speeds of highway wind deflector collapses back into flat position. Quite embarrassing and inconvenient situation. How to make sure it doesn't happen?

I used mine once just for the heck of it and it did the same thing over about 65 or 70, and that was the only time I ever used it. Probably would not use it anyway. You have to put it on and it looks kinda dumb IMO. Like exercise bicycles, wind deflectors are gathering dust all over America.

Quite agree on exercise bikes.
But it does help with wind though.
