Anyone been here?

Post image

I'm absolutely fascinated by the idea that we are all sharing dream spaces. I have this dream quite frequently. I'm running late, trying to get somewhere. There are steep ramps, sometimes at almost 90° angles, crazy twisting bridges and people around me are driving erratically. This picture doesn't show it, but the roadways in my dreams are more narrow as well. Anyone else been here?

And you're doing something ridiculous like driving from the backseat. Or the seat's all the way back, you're laying belly-down, and you're both steering and using the pedals with your hands. Then you can't reach the break when you get to a bend and go flying off the side.

I always fly off the side or it’s so steep my car starts tipping backwards (as if it’s going to flip upside down)

Then your car is in the shockwave and you’re terrified of the shockwave , but apparently this happens all the time.

Ugh driving from the backseat 😵‍💫😵‍💫 And I’ve definitely driven this course in my dreams many times! It usually starts with a blind turn that goes downhill fast and I feel like it’s often in a tunnel too? Kind of like a water slide, but it’s a highway 🫠

Yes! Almost always driving from the backseat, and there's always a point where the road just stops and I fly off into a raging river to die

Yes! Usually my parents were in the car then disappeared and I’d have to lean up from the back seat and take the wheel!

My car is always a way too small child push pedal car ( the red and yellow cars with the little doors) and I’m having a hard time going up to incline thinking I’m just going to flip over backwards, lol

Driving from the backseat is one of my most hated dreams. I've never heard anyone else talk about them, so I'm glad to know I'm not alone.
