Reoccuring dream: Driving from the backseat of a car?

[Anonymous]

So every now and then I have this dream where I'm driving from the back seat of a car. Nothing in the dream really stands out or happens when I'm driving it.

Last night, the dream was a little different. I had gotten in the car to escape or drive away or something. Somehow I ended up in the backseat driving. I drive along a road with 2 lanes on each side for a little bit. Then a guy runs out into the middle of the road screaming something and trying to get me to stop. I can't reach the break because I'm in the back seat and hit him. Then I wake up.

Until today, I never thought much of the dream, even thought it was kinda cool. The dream last night changed that.

I looked online, and apparently driving from the back seat symbolized not having control of your life. I can't for the life of me figure out what the part of running over someone from the backseat means

Please, someone help me figure this out

Links to your sources would help greatly too if possible

As a side note, I also often have dreams where my teeth are crumbling and falling out. I don't know if this could be connected or not.

the way you drive in your dreams is the same you lead your life now .

driving of the backseet usually indicates that some how you`re not in control of the way your is life going and the 2 lanes means that either you are about to make a desicion or just about to choose between two things or ways .

the breaks could mean that you are under some kind of an effect but can't stop or can't help being under it .

in the end you were right ' driving from the back seat symbolized not having control of your life'

and in order for this to stop you have to find a way to take control .

But what does the running over someone mean? That was the most troubling part of the dream.

you`re afraid , the choice you`re gonna make is not an easy one and you might screw up...

To see a man in your dream, denotes the masculine aspect of yourself - the side that is assertive, rational, aggressive, and/or competitive.. to kill or to hurt this man in your dream is pointing to the seriousness and the influence of this disicion as it makes you question your masculanity .

I think I figured it out. These dreams are about not being able to stand up for myself. Whenever conflict arises, I simply back down. It all makes sense now, thank you.

I have this dream quite often actually. A coupe nights ago I had a dream where I was driving my grandpa's school bus from the very back. I was driving pretty recklessly but nothing too serious until I came to a red light where there was a car full of girls stopped. The break was all the way in the front so when I saw their car I tried running all the way up but instead ended up smashing into them and drove away. No idea what this means
