Possibly, or it could just be subconcious fears or anxieties.
But, the car thing reminds me, everytime I try to take a nap, I have the same dream, that I'm driving a car and I can't control it because I'm falling asleep in the dream, I don't have enough energy to control it. I think this might be my mind creating a situation that reminds me of how I feel, like I'm falling.. or slipping.. or such.
I have somewhat often have dreams that I kill someone, or multiple people, I hope that is not preparing me for future events [:O]. I think it might just be some hidden anxieties coming to surface in my case.. hopefuly it's the same for you.
oh yeah i didnt mean that the events would actually come to be, but as you said a fear you have. and its helping you get over that fear so if it does happen, then you wont be so scared and will be able to deal with the matter with a clear head.
ive also had dreams were ive been in gun fights with friends.. sure hope that isnt gonna happen.

I think you have nothing to worry about. Dreams are dreams. Think of it like LD's. You make the plot up. Does that mean it is real? No.
oh no im not worried at all. im saying its a good thing. its always good to be prepared, especially ifs a matter of life and death.
im also thinkin that it might be good to organise bad things to happen in Lucid dreams... to kind of challenge yourself, or put yourself in a very scary situation often enough to get over it.

Maybe it is telling you that the cars are the devil's work.
Hmmm Do you perfer a car or plane?

Ive had so many dreams that im about to die or im in a very serious and life threatening situation and it just occured to me that maybe its my subconcious' way to prepare me for similar events if they ever occur in the future. so by having these experiences maybe ill be able to keep a straight mind and get through it alright.
my scariest one that i remember was a few weeks ago and i was in a car driving through scotland i think, i lost control and the car was hanging on a cliff. i did every "reality check" i could think of at the time. i pinched myself and it hurt, i tried putting my hand through the door and it was solid, i even closed my eyes and saw blackness. i thought for sure i was about to die, next thing i know im falling. then i wake up.
ive had many others where ive felt like i was about to die and could feel my heart racing and thoughts get all rushed and frantic. i often dont even question if im dreaming.
closing my eyes usually works (it maybe hasnt 2 or 3 times).
