ABSTRACT:
The present invention pertains to a vehicle lamp, comprising: a lamp body in which a first illuminating direction and a second illuminating direction perpendicular to the first illuminating direction are open; an illumination lens for forming a lamp by closing the lamp body and having a first illumination surface through which the light from the light source outgoes to the first illuminating direction, and a second illumination surface through which the light from the light source outgoes to the second illuminating direction; a first reflecting surface for reflecting the light from the light source into the first illuminating direction; a shield for shielding a part of the light proceeded from the light source to the first illuminating direction; and a second reflecting surface formed on the surface facing the light source of the shield, wherein the second reflecting surface reflects and directs the light shielded by the shield into the second illuminating direction. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a vehicle lamp with a shield of a double directional illumination structure that can emit light into a lateral direction without interfering with forward illumination by means of one light source, achieving high light efficiency and maximized spatial utilization.
