It's PA law the chains have to be crossed to create a cradle. Also in PA it's law you have to remove your ball mount (insert) when not towing something, though rarely enforced.

There is no need to leave it in if you're not towing.
Really its the hitches fault your mom ran into it? Sounds like she needs to pay attention to where she is walking.
My rigs have the hitches in them more then they don't, most likely its not my RV hitch but the general hitch to pull the boat or utility trailer.
I highly dough its law to remove them in any half way free state but I didn't even realize that it was a problem. Guess I have been dodging trailer hitches since I was old enough to walk.
