They'll leave your car at the speed of light, and when that light passes anybody,
they'll measure the speed of the light as it passes them to be the speed of light.

To travel at the speed of light you would have to BE light so i guess you would became an even brighter light The switch to turn on the lights will work but no light will come on as you are already at that speed
What happens when light passes into a material where the speed of light is lower?
It moves at a slower speed!
What happens to frequency does the speed of light ever change?
The speed of light IN A VACUUM is always the same. In substances other than the vacuum, the speed of light is usually slower than in a vacuum.
What happens to the speed of light when it travels from air into glass?
It decreases.
If you are travelling at the speed of light and turn your headlights on what will happen?
Your headlights will illuminate the roadway in front of you (or the spaceway or whatever), just as if you were driving on a road and turned on your headlights under those circumstances. The light will leave the headlights at the speed of light (for the medium through which it is taveling) regardless of how fast you are going. The speed of light is a constant, no matter what your frame of reference. That is what Einstein said. The speed of light, c, is always the same (for the medium through which it is traveling), regardless of who measures it and whether or not that person is in motion relative to another observer. Both observers will get the same result measuring c. Time changes in different frames of reference, different inertial frames. That's why the speed is the same.
When you are traveling at the speed of light what happens when you turn on your headlights?
In theory you would not see them because there is no way of the light getting to you because for that to happen you would need to travel slower than the light or the light would have to be coming from the opposed direction
If you were traveling at the speed of light in a car what would happen if you turned on the headlights?
Nothing
What happens to the speed of light when it is refracted?

What does overdriving your headlights mean?
It means driving at such a speed that you can't see upcoming road hazards because your stopping distance is greater than the effective illumination of your headlights.
What happens if a car is driving at a constant speed?
it will just be driving at a steady speed where two opposite forces are equal andbalanced
What happens when light passes into a material where the speed of light is lower?
It moves at a slower speed!
How fast do you have to be driving in order to be undetected by a speed camera?
Probably the speed of light!
What happens to the speed of light as it moves from water into air?
The speed increases.
What happens to the speed of the light when it passes from air into glass?
