Because a house on a highway isn't something you see everyday, Twitter had a field day with it.
Whaaaat I’m so beyond confused why is there a house in the highway https://t.co/8RjqRpocAv

Many people fully didn't get it.
It's still crazy to me that Americans can just put their house on a truck and move it elsewhere https://t.co/G7rr6KfU3D

... to "get off my driveway!"....
If I was the owner I’d clench my fist and yell at the cars to get off my driveway! https://t.co/NS4oWhVc1n

People wrote up Zillow listing descriptions.

$2800 seems like a bargain nowadays.

It really was a relatable moment for many.

And what happened to that house?

In the end, it looks like the house got there when it was switching lanes.
It looks like that house was traveling in the outer lanes and then cut into inner lane traffic. pic.twitter.com/bfRONACV8t

Eventually, they started the highway house removal process.

They got that house on another truck.
In case you’re wondering how they are going to do this, they are loading the house on a flat bed pic.twitter.com/wUmjYgLLi5

And voila, just like that, it was gone.
It probably won’t be too much longer now. They got about half the house on the flat bed and pushed the remains of it to the side of the road. @wsoctv pic.twitter.com/uxpJgWGUFJ

I hope that house made it, well, home.
The home will be late to dinner 😆 https://t.co/SkSKM0rbTO
