Abstract
An optical assembly, a vehicle lamp and a motor vehicle are disclosed. The optical assembly includes a light guide, the light guide at least having a first light guide section, a second light guide section and a bridging light guide section. The first light guide section and the second light guide section are connected together at one end to form an end region and bifurcating from the end region, the end region having an end face for the in-coupling of light. The bridging light guide section is arranged between the first light guide section and the second light guide section. The bridging light guide section is spaced apart from a bifurcation position of the first light guide section and the second light guide section, and the bridging light guide section has a light in-coupling face facing the bifurcation position, and a light out-coupling face.
