Interesting Leo. Out of control automobiles are a common motif in my dreams as well. However, I am always the one driving.,

I have often puzzled over this, as I have only been in one automobile crash in my life and it was quite minor. Why is it that one dreams of such thing? I for one am quite happy about it since the surge of adrenaline I feel as the crash occurs always triggers lucidity in me.

I know you are heavily into Architypes, but could you classify this motif? The Car Crash Archetype? Or on a deeper level, perhaps some underlying fear of losing control that manifests itself in a crash? Sounds like you and I might have a common issue here.
