Hah that IS weird. Like the opposite of a false awakening

As far as the freeway dream, I wonder if you could have used it, or a car let's say, to act as a time machine. I like to use whatever objects are around me to do my bidding in a lucid dream. Like for example, I wanted to go to a prehistoric ocean, and all I had summoned was a present day lake. So I found an inflatable raft that was already on the lake, and got inside, and imagined it was a tiny submarine. I pushed imaginary buttons on the side with a made up combination, all the while thinking of going to a prehistoric ocean and it worked.

There are simpler versions of this technique of course, but I find it's handy to just use objects already around me to get what I want. Some dreamers can do everything they want in a lucid by just thinking it, but I'm not quite there yet!
