I don't love to back up. Especially not in my new ginormous minivan. (Why do they call it a minivan? There is nothing mini about it.) So I usually find parking spots that I don't have to back out of, or find ones that have no cars behind them. Needless to say, I get a little anxious every time I back up. I think this is the cause behind the dream I keep having.
In the dream I am backing my car up, usually out of a driveway. I get back as far as I need to be and then I push on the brakes to stop. Every time the brakes fail and I keep going backwards until I hit something. It is so frustrating. I then have a huge anxiety attack thinking about the insurance and getting the car fixed. I am always desperately trying to pound the brakes harder. I put the car in drive and hit the gas and just continue to roll back. I have had this same dream for years. Maybe I should look it up on a dream analyzer and see what it means.

Maybe you'll feel better if you have your brakes checked obsessively--like every 2 months! And that is one of the things I remember about you. I'm also known to have pretty vivid dreams, but thankfully not too many nightmares (although, recently I had a dream about the hair lady accidentally dying the ends of my hair orange instead of blonde!).
I've never liked backing up! I just feel like I can't REALLY see what's behind me. I really hate backing the car out of our "driveway" at the place we live at. It's so tight. I swear I've hit the fence a few times (don't tell Gavin!)
