Since darkness is the absence of light, it is safe to assume that the speed of darkness is the same as the speed of light which is 300,000,000 m/s. Darkness occurs when there is no light. When light leaves an object,darkness follows in behind and so they travel at the same speed.

That is a hard question but I would say light travels. To me, Light is just like a moving car and darkness is like the road. When a car moves on the road, it covers part of the road so we cannot see it but as the car moves, we see the road appear behind it. And I apply the same pinciple to light.
