Car driving at the speed of light.......

Forgive me for asking but can someone help me prove somebody wrong.....

IMAGINE a car was travelling at the speed of light and it was dark. If the driver turned his headlights on would they light the way in front of him or can light not travel any faster than the speed of light?!

Similarly, if you were driving the same car at the speed a bullet leaves a gun and fired a gun forwards, would the bullet leave the barrel or would it dribble out?
