In the passenger seat of a car, on the highway. I looked over to my left to see who was driving the car. When I then realized no one was driving the car and it was driving itself. Then I had to climb into the driver's seat to take the wheel and drive. When I then realized the brakes were not working and we were going 70 mph.
Dreams involving cars often symbolize your journey through life, your sense of control, and how you navigate different situations. In your dream, being in the passenger seat suggests that you might feel like you're not entirely in control of your life or circumstances. The fact that no one is driving and the car is moving on its own could indicate feelings of uncertainty or anxiety about where your life is headed, suggesting you might feel as though you're on autopilot or that external factors are dictating your path.
When you climb into the driver’s seat to take control, it signifies a desire for empowerment or a realization that you need to take charge of your life. However, the brakes not working while you're going 70 mph introduces a significant feeling of panic or loss of control, indicating that you might be facing a situation that feels overwhelming or out of your hands.
This dream could reflect concerns about responsibilities, making decisions, or feeling pressured by life events. It may be a prompt to acknowledge areas in your life where you need to assert yourself or where you might feel unable to stop or change course. It could be beneficial to reflect on aspects of your life where you feel a lack of control and consider how you could regain that control moving forward.
