If you were travelling at the speed of light in a vehicle with headlamps, would they still work ??
Answers:
If Steven Wright knew you were hacking his stand up comedy routine, would he be miffed?
P.S. It wouldn't matter because you would be moving too fast to see anything.
one doesnt have anythang to do wit the other.lol
Yes

Relativity: The Special and General TheoryAlbert Einstein's theory of relativity, or simply relativity, refers specifically to two theories: special relativity and general relativity. As a field of study, relativity also includes metric theories of gravitation in which special relativity applies locally.
The term "relativity" was coined by Max Planck in 1908 to emphasize how special relativity (which at that time was the only relativity theory) uses the principle of relativity.

Special relativity
Main article: Special relativity
Albert Einstein's 1905 paper "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" introduced the special theory of relativity. Special relativity considers that observers in inertial reference frames, which are in uniform motion relative to one another, cannot perform any experiment to determine which one of them is "stationary". This is known as the principle of relativity. While this principle was not new to Albert Einstein's work, he found that including electromagnetism in this principle required a new formalism with many surprising consequences. In particular, it required the speed of light in a vacuum to be the same for all these observers, regardless of their motion or the motion of the source of the light.
One of the strengths of special relativity is that it can be derived from only two premises:
The laws of physics are the same in any inertial frame of reference. This means that the laws of physics observed by a hypothetical observer traveling with a relativistic particle must be the same as those observed by an observer who is stationary in the laboratory.
The speed of light in a vacuum is constant (specifically, 299,792,458 meters per second relative to the observer).

General relativity
Main article: General relativity
General relativity was developed by Einstein in the years 1911 - 1915. General relativity is a geometrical theory which postulates that the presence of matter "curves" spacetime, and this curvature affects the path of free particles (and even the path of light). It uses the mathematics of differential geometry and tensors in order to describe gravitation without the use of the force of gravity. This theory considers all observers to be equivalent, not only those moving with uniform speed.

Headlamps wouldn't matter. According to Einstein, you would shrink to nothing.
yes they would
If it was possible for a headlamp to travel at the speed of light, any photons emitted in a forward direction would stand still relative to the headlamp. They would rapidly build up a force field and destroy the headlamp.
I dont know, but when you go that fast, please let us all know.
I answered this yesterday for someone else. It took me three paragraphs. You get the short version.
Yes, but since you'd be going so fast, you would be unable to see whatever the light from them reflected off of. You'd likely fly into a star or planet, and reduce yourself to component sub-atomic particles. Please, go ahead and try it.
yes they would work at that speed the light from your lights wood be going at zero spreed due to the fact that it would be starting at zero in relation to your lights
yes, you just would not realize it because the headlights would never get ahead of you
if they did (not saying they do) I don't like seeing where i am going anyway I drive by feel!
