In Roman history, a common misconception is that the Romans were clean and masters of sanitation. Only part of this is true, however. Cleanliness was practiced more widely in Rome than a lot of other civilizations, but there was still a large degree of filth. For example, Romans used urine (not only theirs) in many different applications, like to clean clothes.
To the point, dirty water was poured out of the street because there really wasn't much other place to dump it, except if the.re were the proud Roman engineered sewers nearby (not that you would want to go there, they smelled). Besides, the streets were cleaned at times.

With the continued addition of clean water to dirty water, eventually the dirty water will be completely diluted and there will be no dirty water left; it will all be replaced by clean water.
