It's not quite right to say that "time stops at the speed of light." It's better to say "time becomes undefined at the speed of light." But what's interesting is, so does length due to length contraction. So using layman's terms, you could say time stops, but also, it doesn't have to go anywhere, because lengths are all zero.
