I would guess that:
- both translations are possible
- most people would interpret it like your version (I hope my friend is a safe driver, perhaps as a joke)
- to disambiguate it in one direction, one could add a comma: 友達の車に乗る前に、死なないように祈る。
- to disambiguate in the other direction, one could use potential: 友達の車に乗れる前に死なないように祈る。
But I’m also curious what the staff meant and what the correct answer to your question is.

Hey @shadowstar !
The translation should have been ‘Before I get in my friend’s car, I pray that I don’t die.’ so I have just fixed the translation!
However, both translations would work depending on the situation!

Thank you both!!
