Abstract

A tail light with at least one light source and with a light guide body into which light generated by the light source can be coupled and out of which back-up light can be coupled, and light for illuminating the ground region can be decoupled. The light guide body has a light entry area through which light from the light source can be coupled into the light guide body. The light guide body has at least a first light exit area for the back-up light and a second light exit area for the light for illuminating the ground region, wherein the first and the second light exit areas may overlap. The light guide body has a first reflection surface at which a portion of the coupled-in light can be deflected in the direction of at least one of the light exit areas.
