Google actually returned over 7 million results, although disregarding most of those would still leave an impressive number!

Yes, it turns into a Formula F1 race and many beautiful women congratulate me at the finishing line.

Just kidding. I am usually driving the supermarket and I always crash.

I haven't, but apparently it's a common dream ..

I have had that dream/nightmare, too. That is ****ed up.

I am in the back seat and realize I can't use the brakes, but I can steer. Also my vision is very dim.

This is very common..

People "say" it has to do with Not-being-in-control  of your life.

I don't think that's an accurate interpretation

Because fundamentally, YOU ARE in control of YOU, no matter the perceptive elements of your situation.

So,  essentially, it'd be more accurate to say that,  this dream represents you NOT EXERCISING control.


There's a huge difference..

I forget most of my dreams, but throughout most of grad school I had dreams about my teeth falling out.

Oh man, I've had that before too. I think it's because I was grinding my teeth in my sleep.  :eek:

That dream also seems to be very common. Sometimes you might even remember having that dream before during one. You can then try to turn it into a lucid dream (google it, those are worth it).

My usual dream is me running or jumping, falling down, and waking up just before I crash. Always happens too fast to try anything :(

I used to have dreams that I was at my parents house surrounded by snakes. Like, they would be all over the yard and I couldn't take a step without one being close to me. Also a few other times I dreamt I was in my parents kitchen and outside the glass door (coincidentally where all the snakes are in separate dreams) was a crocodile, another time it was a bear, and another a wolf.

Wry?

I don't think so, but that's an interesting observation on what they could be about. I didn't think about that before.

Hrrm.. were you actively trying to avoid something at home.. was there a subconscious level of distress..

Probably, I can't really remember what was going on during the times that I would have these dreams but it's not unlikely that I was stressed about something. I've always had some level of stress in my life, even as a child. :D
