Abstract
A vehicle lamp includes a first light source, a first reflector which reflects light emitted from the first light source to form a low beam light distribution pattern, a second light source, a second reflector which reflects light emitted from the second light source to form a high beam additional light distribution pattern and includes a short distance reflection surface provided at a closer position and a long distance reflection surface provided at a farther position with respect to the second light source at a predetermined interval therebetween, a third light source, and a third reflector which is arranged at the back side of the second reflector and reflects light emitted from the third light source through a gap between the short distance reflection surface and the long distance reflection surface. The third light source is configured to be lit in a low beam irradiation mode.
