A light bar for a vehicle including a body, a light source, a plurality of optical fibers extending within the body, and a housing for directing light from the light source to the plurality of optical fibers. The optical fibers have one end generally facing the light source and another end facing outwardly at the body. The housing is positioned within the body. The light source is stationary and non-rotatable relative to the body. The housing is rotatable relative to the light source. The housing has at least one aperture formed therein. The light source directs light through the aperture to at least one of the plurality of optical fibers. A reflective surface is formed within the housing generally opposite the aperture so as to focus light toward the aperture. A motor is connected to the housing and is positioned within the body. A power supply is electrically connected to the light source and to the motor.
