speed of light ... a question

Sledge-o-matic decimates unwary vegetation
Is it a reasonable question in a comic-book era (borrowed from the comedian "Gallagher," I think):
If a car is hurtling through space at the speed of light, do the headlights still work?
You may think this is a foolish question, but consider: There was a time when you thought Donald Trump was foolish as well.

    You would see headlights shining forth as usual. A third party observer would not.
