If you threw another one right beside it you would be better off to take that one off. They will not give you a break on a bad one just because you have more than needed. I personally wouldn't cross a scale or even use it, not because it won't handle the load but because I don't want the harassment that could come with it, on the other hand I have seen straps in much worse shape than that, and the ones running them never seem to get caught. I ain't that lucky.

I've always kept my straps in the box, or wait.............that was before I got caught for unsecured load! In AZ, that strap would get you a ticket...I'd change it. Happy trails!
