Wouldn't they still shine? You just wouldn't be able to see them from the front.


Not a physicist, I just dabble. Its a fun subject... From what I understand...

As I said, The closer you get to the speed of light, time slows down. You will never reach the speed of light, Period. Therefore, yes, your headlights will always shine out in front of you, its just that the speed coming from the lights themselves doesn't change just because what its coming from changes speed.

‘Pants’ is a plurale tantum. Pant leg is non-standard english. Standard English is pants leg.
