Locals from a village in Cambodia were captured transporting a wooden house along a road and causing severe travel disruption.

The unusual scene was captured by a driver stuck in the traffic jam in Kampot province, Cambodia, in March this year.

Footage shows the wooden house loaded onto two tractor-trailers reversing down the road.

Oncoming vehicles are forced to squeeze through a tiny gap and go off the road onto the dirt track whilst others wait patiently behind the house.

Some cars and motorcycles do risk overtaking to get clear of the obstacle, narrowly avoiding collisions with other vehicles.

The filmer said: ''I was stuck behind the house but I didn't want to overtake because I did not have good visibility.’’

''I think people were moving to another village and they wanted to take their home with them.''

Astonishing footage shows locals causing a traffic jam by transporting a wooden HOUSE along the road.

The unusual scene was captured by a driver stuck behind the extra-wide load in Kampot province, Cambodia, in March this year.

The footage shows the wooden house built in a traditional Khmer style loaded onto two tractor trailers which are reversing down the highway.

Oncoming vehicles are forced to squeeze through a tiny gap and go off the road onto the dirt track next to it.

While those behing the house held up in the traffic jam have to wait patiently. Some cars and motorcycles do risk overtaking to get clear of the obstacle, narrowly avoiding collisions with other vehicles.

The filmer said: ''It's not only a motorbike that causes traffic, homes cause traffic, too.

''I was stuck behind the house but I didn't want to overtake because I could not see the cars coming towards me.

''I think the people were moving to another village and they wanted to take their home with them.''
