I was driving in my dream

I don't know if it has something to do with my longing to have a driver's license but I had a dream last night about me driving a van.

I remembered my son's dad giving me money for our son's birthday. I was on the passenger seat of the van when he gave me the money from the outside. He immediately left telling me that he'll give me more when he gets back. He really didn't went far, he was just on the other side of the road watching me. Suddenly, the van began to move. I was horrified because I was on the passenger seat. I was crying for help but he didn't help me. I miraculously maneuvered the van but instead of stopping, I drove it until I reached a parade of some sort. 

Here are some probable explanations of my dream according to Dream Moods:

To dream that you are driving a vehicle signifies your life's journey and your path in life. The dream is telling of how you are moving and navigating through life. If you are driving from the passenger side of a car, then it suggests that you are trying to gain control of the path your life is taking. You are beginning to make your own decisions. 

To see money in your dream indicates that success and prosperity is within your reach. Money represents confidence, self-worth, success or values.
