You guys are so stupid.... Im asking you in the sense of that you could actually travel the speed of light. Ignore all the theories involving laws of physics. There is another point in my question

nothing. the light couldnt go faster than itself to reflect. same thing as if you were in a car travelling the speed of light and you turned on the headlights

If you were traveling ARBITRARILY close to the speed of light, you would still see yourself in the mirror.
No big deal.
The original question still does not make sense.

NOTE:these answers are made ignoring einsteins theory
first case:
if the mirror is fixed at one point so ur mirror image is also travelling at same spped as u. Then according to relative velocity , velocity of mirror image as seen by u is:
V=Velocity of mirror image+velocity of u
so u find that ur fixed at one point and ur mirror image is travelling twice the speed of light towards urself.
second case:
if mirror is also travelling at speed of light along ur direction of motion
then u see that u and ur image is fixed at one position and u feel that nobody moves towards each other

You wouldn't be travelling at the speed of light so the question makes no sense.

your face, if you hold a mirror in front of you it will be traveling at the same speed as you face, relativity...

You have mass (and if you didn't, the mirror certainly would), so you can't travel at the speed of light, so your question is moot.

Image will be mine, but I dont know whether I can see it.
