Just went camping and came home to this on the front steps. I assume the family of the original owner found this in the house and dropped it off but they are not around to ask. Is this everything? Is there a handle or something that goes on the bit you turn?

Doesn't the problem come from people using these jacks without chocking the wheels on the opposite side - so then the car has a potential to move. I like something like these no matter the jack used. :
