Default easy fix

Two weeks ago doing some stupid speed down M42 my speedo died
I knew its down to front o/s sensor but didn't have a time to look at it
Today dressing up tyres spotted disconnected plug
So plug and play got my speedo back

Didn't know they could come dislodged at "70 mph" on the M42 I hope that's what you call stupid speed on a public forum

At least it was something simple

Should they not be tucked through the inner wing and clipped in the engine bay to prevent such happenings?
