I had a fucked-up dream last night. Before I begin I need to explain that I don't drive due to my whole physical situation. I took special lessons, but it just didn't take and they decided I'd be safer if I was the passenger of someone who could drive.
Anyway.
I was in this car with the bf and we were driving through this weird outdoor thing that was like a hybrid between a cemetery and a store. There were gravestones and long, winding roads that went up and down little hills, but there were also racks of clothes. I was in the passenger seat and was looking at all this stuff and all of these people walking around.
Anyway, the bf gets out of the car and wanders off somewhere, leaving me in the passenger seat. Only we're at the top of a little hill, and he has either left the car in neutral or hasn't applied the parking brake or something because the car begins to roll forward. I look with horror at the people walking across the road in front of me.
I scramble into the driver's seat, intending to get the car stopped, but nothing makes sense. There's only one pedal, and it's narrow and divided into three very thin strips. I try to hit the right side because I think it's the brake, but the car leaps forward and hits a girl I used to go to high school with. She starts screaming "What the HELL?!?" and I'm trying to apologize and hit other parts of the pedal without mashing the whole thing down.
Meanwhile the girl is making a big deal of writing down my license plate number and I'm simultaneously trying to stop the car and get away, because after all I never intended to hit her. It seemed unfair to me in the dream that she would want me to get in trouble for something that was really my boyfriend's fault and something I didn't mean to do.
When I woke up and reported the dream to the bf, he said of course the car would leap forward if I hit the right side of the pedal because that was the accelerator. Oh yeah, huh.
