What happens if you are travelling at the speed of light and turn on your headlights?

Re: Thought for Today
The real question is, if you are travelling faster than the speed of light and you turn on the forward facing lights, do they become charging devices because light would be flowing into them rather than being projected out?

Re: Thought for Today
T1,
I suspect that the light would try to break free of your headlights, and either overheat the lenses to melting point, or escape briefly (because its speed relative to your vehicle would be the speed of light) then when it exited the lens it would be doing twice the speed of light (relative to the external space), thus coming to a screaming halt. Your headlights would collide with the relatively stationary light and be pulverised, leaving you in the dark.
We then have to calculate the speed of light in the dark to see what happens next.

Re: Thought for Today
If the vehicle is travelling towards the light source at the speed of light, the light hitting the reflector and concentrating the light into the bulb would be travelling at the speed of light as well, so the light coming into contact with the bulb would be travelling at twice the speed of light forcing the light into the bulb and stopping any light being generated by the bulb because the speed of the light going in would be double the speed of the light trying to escape ..... dark energy explained

Looks like T1 was doing science while trying to figure how to get into Tiffins.

Did ya like the last bit, dark energy explained I reckon that was pretty shape after only 2 hrs sleep, starting to really feel it now though, too many miles on the clock to be doing this continuous 7 days a week crap, roll on Taggerty
