"And traveling alone in the HOV lane, thats definitely going to be a ticket 😂" tweeted Dave.

"Alright... The shark swimming on land is no longer a meme now because it actually just happened. #flwx #Ian" tweeted BGWX.

"I love how there's people freaking out about sharks in the street in Florida, it happens every couple of years." tweeted Thomas, who lives there.
