Incorrect.
The signal is not the same as the individual electron.
While each electron is merely vibrating the signal travels at near light speed.
With a little bit of imagination you can visualise this with the help of an executive toy like this:

The signal, the part we are interested in, is the impulse while the 3 metal balls in the middle take the place of the electrons. The 3 center balls are hardly moving yet transmit the impulse (our signal) almost instantaneously ie the signal is flowing extremely fast whereas the 3 middle balls (our electrons) hardly move at all.
