Why is light weird?

According to the laws of physics, light is STRANGE!
Imagine you're chasing a car that's moving at 30 km/h and you're moving at 29 km/h, you are 1 km/h slower than the car.
You are very close to the car and can almost keep up.
LIGHT BEHAVES TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
No matter how fast you chase the light, it always moves away from you at exactly the same speed. Even if you were flying at 999,999,999 km/h behind a beam of light, the light would still speed away from you at a full 1 BILLION KM/H. You may as well be standing still!!

Thanks, Adam. Much love. X
