... or may be you will just have to buy yet another mirror?

Yes.
Happens all the time.
Light (which travels the speed of light) is reflected when it strikes a mirror, and if there is a wall opposite the mirror the reflection will make a flash on that wall.
...but personally I avoid running into mirrors...bad luck and all that...

Some theorize that anything traveling at the speed of light would be light. So maybe. If an object was traveling at the speed of light and hit a mirror it would shatter the mirror into incredibly smaller parts. Possibly even shattering complex atoms into simpler elements. Imagine the energy created by such impact. By the way, this is far from a philosophy type issue!

If you ran into a mirror at the speed of light, most likely you'd be dead from the impact. The last thin on your mind would be if there wasa light reflected on an opposite wall.

You'd burn up before you even got close!
Sorry... have to edit to think about ikiraf's answer below! If anything travelling at the speed of light IS light then surely it would just reflect off the mirror like any other light with none of the reactions you describe.

My heavens, I in no way have been flashed, yet I did accidentally flash some individuals as quickly as. i grew to become into interior the well-being middle a while back and desperate to take a stoll to the merchandising section. nicely, I wasn't thinking approximately what i grew to become into donning and, permit's only say that those well-being middle robes do no longer pass away lots to the mind's eye on the backside. The nurse got here up from at the back of me and placed a blanket over my shoulders . . . i grew to become into thinking why it grew to become right into slightly drafty back there!

If it weren't for the light entering the optical lens, you wouldn't "see" the mirror!

Only if there happened to be a speed camera.

No - you would however cause a big red splash across everything.
