The dream
I would like to understand a dream that has been with me for many years.
I dream that I drive my car and when I try to stop and the brakes do not work. There's a traffic light (or another car) in front of me but I can not stop the car. It seems to me that nothing happens or that I finally manage to get out of the situation to avoid an accident. It really makes me nervous that I can not stop even though I press the brake forcefully. I'm 27 years old.

My Interpretation
When such a dream repeats itself the prominent meaning is one - you feel that you have no control over something that happens in your life, or you fear that you will not have that control, that something is about to happen and you can not do anything. You have to check your reality what is happening that gives you a sense of lack of control.
Alternatively, you may be trying to control the reality too much. The dream is here to ask you to relax a little and allow life to take you to your destination in its own way without the mental agenda you are trying to impose. You have nothing to worry about because no damage is caused at the end (and the dream attests to this).
You have to check which of the two interpretations (they contradict!) fits your life circumstances.
