Abstract
The invention relates to a lighting device for a motor vehicle, the lighting device including a light source and a transparent light guide body with a light coupling region. Light emitted by the light source passes an edge and is deflected from a first light deflection surface to a second light deflection surface and from there to a light emitting surface. In vertical sections through the light guide body, the first light deflection surface forms a first intersection curve, and the second light deflection surface forms a second intersection curve. The total focal point of the deflection system formed by the first and second deflection surfaces is arranged at the edge or in a region of the edge such that the deflection system consisting of the first and second deflection surfaces projects the light beams emitted by the light source as a light distribution with a cut-off line.
