Dreams involving threats or danger, such as being confronted with a weapon, often reflect feelings of vulnerability or anxiety in waking life. The car in your dream can symbolize your control over your life's direction or journey. The act of freezing instead of driving away may indicate feelings of being overwhelmed or unable to take action in a situation that feels threatening or stressful.
The man with the screwdriver could represent an external source of pressure or fear, possibly related to a person or situation in your life that you perceive as aggressive or intimidating. This dream might be highlighting your feelings of powerlessness or a fear of confrontation.
Consider reflecting on areas of your life where you might feel stuck or threatened. Are there situations that are causing you stress? Are there decisions you are hesitating to make? This dream could be prompting you to confront these feelings and regain a sense of control. It may be helpful to explore these emotions and think about ways to assert yourself in your waking life.
