Funny and confusing question.
OK, this one's been bothering me. Maybe a physicist out there can help me. Somehow you manage to get a car to travel at the speed of light (And don't say its impossible; lets just pretend). What would happen when you turned on the headlamps?
There's probably a very simple answer that I've overlooked. Enlighten me!

Let me get this straight. You want a logical awnser to what would happen in an impossible situation? Well, let me awnser that for you.
When you turn on the headlights, for all birds, gravity reverses with every flap of their wings. Birds will shoot up into the sky, and as soon as they flap their wings, they come crashing back to earth. When they try to save themselves from immenent death by flapping again, they will shoot back up into the sky.
For all mammals, gravity would turn sideways, and everyone would suddenly be pulled to the left. Left being absolute to everyone. For example, if you are talking to someone, you would suddenly be pulled to the left, but you would also see the person opposite to you move to the left, even though that actually is to his right. Conversely, he would start falling towards the left (your right), and see you falling along with him to your right. So all mammals will start falling to all possible lefts.
For fish, gravity turns into some type of icky immortality goo. Fish will forever be weightless, but they pay the price by being covered in slime for the rest of eternity.
I hope that clears up things. Sincerely,
