Did I go lucid?

Earlier this August my family and I were in Virginia for three weeks on vacation. I was able to do reality checks many times a day and practice some of the other techiques (its a boring vacation, not much else to do) and by the end of the first week I was remembering anywhere from 2-5 dreams a night.
There was this one dream I had where I was riding in the passenger seat of my dads car and he was driving. He lost control of it on an onramp to a high way and then slammed into the guard rail. I then thought to myself, “What the hell, my dad doesnt suck at driving like that, Im only dreaming”. This is the point where I am not sure if I went lucid or not. It felt like I was just conscious with my eyes closed, and yet the dream was still pretty vivid. So Im not sure if I was actually dreaming or just thinking I was still dreaming. Anyway, on with the dream. I took control of the car and started driving reealy fast, weaving in and out of traffic. I got an idea that it would be cool to fly in it, but short after I took off I decided I would rather drive some more, so I did. I woke up shortly after. Can anyone give me their opinion if I had a LD or not?

Well, aparrently you must have been lucid when you said to yourself that you were dreaming. So either you lost lucidity shortly after, or you had a low-level LD.
Thats just MY opinion though…

Sounds like you had an LD; if you were dreaming and knew that you were dreaming, you were lucid. And it sounded like you knew you were dreaming to me :wink: So yes, that was an LD… I’m pretty sure of that!

I love the energetic new guys. They answer everything for me :smile:

Yeah, it was a LD.

Energetic new guys? :neutral: Ehm. If that’s what you’d like to call it. :sad:

Wow…nice job…In a short time you managed :smile:
