Car, Driving, Driving a Car, Car Driving, To drive a car, To drive a cab
To dream of driving a carriage, signifies unjust criticism of your seeming extravagance. You will be compelled to do things which appear undignified. To dream of driving a public cab, denotes menial labor, with little chance for advancement. If it is a wagon, you will remain in poverty and unfortunate circumstances for some time. If you are driven in these conveyances by others, you will profit by superior knowledge of the world, and will always find some path through difficulties. If you are a man, you will, in affairs with women, drive your wishes to a speedy consummation. If a woman, you will hold men's hearts at low value after succeeding in getting a hold on them. [59] See Meaning of Dreams about Cab or Carriage.

Autos
Basic Meaning: A car may symbolize yourself and, in particular, your effectiveness in controlling your life.
 
(1) A car in a dream usually represents yourself, the direction you are going in life, and your effectiveness in controlling your life, attaining your goals, etc. If you are driving the car, this may symbolize taking charge of your own life. (Remember that a dream may be either depicting patterns of behaviour that already exist or recommending to you a new pattern). If some else is driving, the dream may be expressing your over dependence on others.
 
(2) A car may be a sexual symbol, representing the penis (rare) - especially if forceful motion is emphasized in the dream, or if the car is travelling through a tunnel.
 
(3) A car that crashes in a dream may symbolize a state of anxiety over some undertaking or situation. If you are driving, the crash may symbolize an unconscious desire to punish yourself. What guilt-feelings are you harbouring? Guilt and sado-masochism often go hand in hand. Dissolve the guilt feelings (which are almost certainly irrational and which, anyway, can contribute nothing of value to life - your own or anyone else''s), and the violence will dissolve, too.
 
The crash may express a (hidden) fear of mental breakdown, in which case you ought to seek help.
Eric Ackroyd
 
Example in a Dream
Driving an old beat up car down a muddy road on a stormy night.
 
Possible meaning: The old beat up car may symbolize you and the condition your life is in. The muddy road may represent the path you have chosen is weighing you down or you are stuck. Storms often symbolize struggles and/or turmoil in your life. Night may symbolize your unconscious, either repressed feelings or unconscious motivations.
This dream would represent a negative condition of your life, perhaps emotions or aspects you have repressed or ignored.
