Interpretation 2 — Dr. Mıchael Lennox

Vehicles are so much a part of modern life that as a symbol in a dream they can represent the ways in which your outer or social experience in the world is constantly moving and results in a sense of chaos. In this way, a traffic jam is a symbol of when there is too much of this attempted movement and things get backed up. Are you attempting to do too much at once? Are there things you would like to accomplish, but other things, such as responsibilities or obligations, are getting in the way?

Interpretation 3 — Martha Clarke

A traffic jam could express that your life is not going as you would like. You feel blocked.

If you dream that you are a traffic director, it shows your desire to impose your own norms on society. On the contrary, you likely believe yourself to be in a role not meant for you, and that others isolate you. In this case, you should confront the problem.

If you dream of a big traffic jam, it means that you will resolve your problems through a lot of patience.

People around you going about their daily business, or activity around you in your life.
