ABSTRACT:
A blink lamp for a motor vehicle, which is arranged at a corner area of a vehicle, has a reflector with an outer first reflector portion (R1) and an inner second reflector portion (R2), a light source (L) whose socket is arranged between the first and second reflector portions, and a light-transmissive shield (S) covering a facing side of the lamp and extending substantially rearward along a side area of the vehicle. In order to provide a maximized light output from the first and second reflector portions the first and second reflector portions are formed together as one piece with their reflector surfaces running together continuously; a projection of the inner second reflector portion in a driving direction is at least as large as a projection of the outer first reflector portion; the surfaces of both the first and second reflector portions are formed so that a light reflection direction continuously changes as a function of changes in geometric positions on the reflector surface; and both the first and second reflector portions create substantially the same light distribution, with both the first and second reflector portions, in both horizontal and vertical cross sectional directions, or planes, having a light scattering reflective characteristic corresponding to a light distribution to be achieved.
