Bedroom door comes open during travel.

I noticed that the bedroom door sometimes comes open during travel. I assume it's due to the rigors of going down the road and the FW frame flexing. I am worried the doorknob will eventually put a hole in the wall. Was thinking of a 2 way door stop like this one:

But the FW door gap is greater at the floor than a residential door.

I guess I could make one out of wood and attach foam rubber to it. I am concerned a magnetic latch wouldn't hold it on a bad road.

Anyone have this issue and a solution?

way2roll our bathroom door does that too, if we seat it just right it will stay closed, but often it was bouncing around. I started by by cutting the plate a bit wider, but the final solution was to get a new knob and that solved the problem. I was about to install something like this

I have an issue with a pocket door that I want to put a door stop. But it also has a large gap at the ground. So I am following this post.
