No. There is no "normal" speed for electrons: they move at a wide range of speeds. When carrying electricity in a domestic wire, the actual speed of individual electrons is less than 1 millimetre per second! On the other hand, electrons in an atom can travel around the nucleus at over a million metres per second - though this motion is not like planetary orbits around the sun. However, this is nowhere near the speed of light which is appox 300 million metres per second.
They can ONLY move slower than the speed of light.
Nothing that has mass when it's stationary can move at the speed of light. Electrons can move at any lesser speed. In modern particle accelerators, they can be boosted to 0.99999c. But every additional ' 9 ' requires ten times as much energy as the previous one did.

No, electric current is the flow of electrons through a conductor, but the individual electrons do not move at near the speed of light. Instead, the speed of electron movement in a conductor is typically much slower.
No, protons do not travel through an electric circuit at or near the speed of light. In a circuit, electrons are the charge carriers that move through the wires at speeds much slower than the speed of light. Protons typically remain within the nucleus of an atom and do not move freely in a circuit.
No. Because of their mass, they travel slower than c.
Light is faster because speed does not move. Speed is a measure of the rate of movement but, in itself, it does not move - at all!
They can ONLY move slower than the speed of light.
So far nothing is found to move at a faster speed than that of light.
We know of nothing that cam move faster than light.
Yes, typically about 2/3 of the speed of light in a vacuum - that is, about 200,000 km/sec. Note that the drift speed of the electrons is only a fraction of a millimeter per second, and the random speed of electrons is faster, but still much slower than the speed of the CURRENT.Yes, typically about 2/3 of the speed of light in a vacuum - that is, about 200,000 km/sec.

According to the theory of relativity, nothing can move faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.

There are some situations in which waves move faster than the speed of light; but in no case can this be used to transmit matter, energy, or information, at a speed faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.

According to the theory of relativity, nothing with mass can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.
No. No object can move faster then light. However, Minato Namikaze (the Fourth Hokage) and Uchiha Madara posses the ability to move at speed nearing the speed or light, or the speed of light itself, utilizing the space-time ninjutsu.
