Trucking

So he stopped on the side of the road, climbed onto the trailer, turned on the lights of the front car, returned to the cab of the truck, and continued driving.
A few miles down the road, an approaching car swerved suddenly and ran off the road into a ditch.
The trucker pulled off the road, stopped, and went over to the car to see if he could help. "Why did you swerve off the road?" he asked the car's driver
The driver replied, "Well, I figured that if you were as wide as you were tall, I'd never get past!"
