RE: twice of the speed of light???

i know what you are talking about. but there is one thing really confuse me.

when a person is driving a car and a photon comes opposite, he should oberser the photon traveling at the sped of light. but if car goes the same direction of the photon travels, would it still be the speed of light?? if so, would the speed be slower to the first moving car???

one car is chasing the photon and one car is going oppisite way to the photon. would they observe the photon traveling at the speed of light????maybe the difference is too little. how about both cars moving at 99% of the speed of light??

if the speed is the same. to the photons, both cars stop??? whats the speed of the car to the photons???

I have mistaken, apologized, and taken the consequences. My only regret, was for how I was bothered by the unchangable.
