Relative to your car, the bug is travelling at whatever speed the bug normally flies at; this would almost certainly be less than 55mph. Relative to the road, the bug is travelling at 55mph, plus whatever its speed inside the car is: * If the bug were moving from front to back (of the car), it is travelling at slightly less than 55mph; * if moving from back to front, it is moving at slightly more; * if travelling side to side, it is also traveling at slightly more than 55mph - vector addition of velocities shows this; * if staying still inside the car, it is travelling at 55mph.
