The rolled-up floor rug can be seen sticking out from both sides of the car.

Police said the picture was shared with them.

“Where to begin?!?!?!” continued the post before offering three tips: “Secure any load you are transporting, realize that you must be smaller than the lane size, and obey the load capacity of your vehicle.”

The Georgia Department of Transportation retweeted the picture saying "Wait. Face palm. Don’t do this, folks."
