Friday morning joke (1st joke thread...)

I would like to have the opinions (of many people) on this joke:

(Note: I dislike it :

[Link]

I mentioned it [I believe {although I did not mention the actual joke (I mentioned the instance in which it was told)}] in the afore-linked-to thread).

A man is in his car and is following another vehicle.

At a set of traffic lights both vehicles stop (I presume it is a red-light [and both drivers are law-abiding citizens]).

The man in the car says to the man in the vehicle: "You are dropping something out of the rear of your vehicle".

The other driver seems not to worry.

Both vehicles carry on, and then stop at another set of traffic light.

The aforementioned conversation was repeated, and again they (the drivers [in their vehicles]) accelerate, and continue along the road.

At a third set of traffic lights, the driver of the car warns the driver of the other vehicle again. This time the driver of the other vehicle says: "I am driving a gritting lorry".

I find this "joke" very bad. It seems to me like the creator has merely put together a plausible (but very unlikely) story, and then told it (hoping it would be funny).

(This thread reminded me of that joke [as I was perusing the afore-linked-to thread earlier {which is a good thread (I believe)}]).
