Dream Dictionary

Crash

To dream that you are in a car crash, indicates that your beliefs, lifestyle, or goals are clashing with another's.

It may also represent a shocking situation or painful experience.

Alternatively, car crashes may forewarn of your dangerous or careless driving habits.

To dream that a plane crashes, signifies that you have set overly high and unrealistic goals for yourself and are in danger of having it come crashing down.

Alternatively, your lack of confidence, self-defeating attitude and self-doubt toward the goals you have set for yourself is represented by the crashing airplane; you do not believe in your ability to attain those goals. Loss of power and uncertainty in achieving your goals are also signified.
