    interesting question. you just might be a super hero. but if you are driving at the same speed of light then you wouldn't be able to see. the light would not get pass the headlights because they would be going the same speed.

    I don't know being as I have only gone 125 mph in a car at night down the expressway and that was fast enough for me.

    You get a strongly worded letter from Steven Wright's lawyer on the subject of copyright infringement.

    The light will continue to shine in front of you and time would essentially stop....that's EXACTLY what the theory of Relativity explains

    the lights would technically come on but would not light your way because of your speed. hope that helps. good luck.

    No light would project outward but the light would stay where it was first emitted from until you slow down.

  • u go the speed of light, but now u can see where ur going
