    NO !! When you travel at any speed , the gun and the bullet too are already traveling at that speed with you . This speed is relative to the ground . Now when you fire a bullet , for the people on ground , the bullet is traveling at it's normal speed + speed of the car . But when you look at the bullet from your car , it would seem to be traveling at it's normal speed .

    Hope this helps .
