When flat towing a vehicle you need to first check the owners manual to see what the recommended procedure is for towing it on a tow dolly like the # RM-2050-1. In most cases you need to put the vehicle in park as most vehicles are front wheel drive but if the vehicle was rear wheel drive it would need to be in neutral if the vehicle could be towed with a dolly.
Also the steering wheel will need to be locked out as well.
