Abstract
To provide a vehicle lamp that, without providing an additional light blocking member, is capable of blocking light emission that is not routed via a lens or reflector for light distribution control, with a simple and compact configuration. It is provided with a first substrateb on which a first light sourcea is mounted that emits first light Ltowards the front of the lamp, a second substrateb provided in non-parallel to the first substrateb, wherein a second light sourcea for emitting second light Lin a direction different from the direction of the first light Lis mounted on the second substrate, and a rotating reflectorthat rotates a reflective surface about a rotating shaft, the reflective surface reflecting the second light L, wherein part of the first light Lis blocked by a protruding portionc provided where one end of the second substrateb protrudes in the direction of emission of the first light Lbeyond the point of intersection where the extension of the first substrateb intersects the second substrateb.
