Don’t Drive Down the Highway With it On
By TX Outdoorsman from Houston, TX on 10/14/2009
I bought one of these straps as I recognize it is an important piece of safety gear. I put it on the winch hook to recover a stuck vehicle on the beach. When I finished, I needed to get out of a moving lane of traffic, so I left it in place. After an hour drive home on the freeway, the end was frayed. So, this was a one use item for me. They should make them a bit more fray resistant, but next time I will take it off before getting on the highway.
