I dreamt I was driving with an almost out of control speeding car and my palms were so wet I couldn't hold on to the steering wheel well. I would dry them on myself and drive for a while, but then they would slip all over and I couldn't control the wheel. It was very scary. And I was going so fast. What does this mean?

Please note that I am not a doctor.

And I'm not a Freudian knowledgable about "dream interpretation." However, I think the meaning of your dream is very clear.

A car represents power over oneself and / or others; strength; ease of effort at achieving a goal. When one dreams one has little or no control over a car, I think one is dreaming about a concern over loss of power and control in life. The dream may be an early sign of anxiety. Have you any symptoms of anxiety? Night sweats, nightmares, loss of breath for no reason, nervousness, odd eating habits, or sleep irregularly?

Perhaps there is a concern about job performance, social relationships, or child rearing. If you were face to face with a psychoanalyst, there are dozens of other questions you could explore together to find meaning to your dream. This forum is not very good in that respect.
