So I'm kind of new to the whole physics thing so be nice please :P
If i guess "nature" keeps objects from being able to go the speed of light then does "nature" keep light from going slower/faster than that speed? I first thought of this when i read a thread asking if gravity actually pulls on light. I didn't want to hijack his thread with my questions so I decided to start a new one.
Basically he was wondering if light was to say bend around Earth due to gravity, wouldn't the area of this beam of light , the side closest to Earth, move quicker than the area on the outside?

But I was thinking... if objects are bound to never go 100% of light speed then wouldn't light be bound to always go 100% of light speed? Just as an object say a car gets close to light speed and seems to slow down wouldn't light particles adjust to going faster than they're "supposed to" and govern themselves?
I don't know as I said I'm kinda new to this stuff and would really appreciate some enlightenment.
