1. A lighting device for a vehicle, the lighting device comprising:
at least two light sources that are arranged in an array and are operatable independently of each other, the at least two light sources emitting light during operation and being provided inside of a housing;
an exit face through which the light emanating from the at least two light sources passes, the exit face being a transparent lens that covers an opening of the housing; and

wherein the light emanating from the light sources exits to an exterior of the housing of the lighting device via the exit face after the light has been at least partly reflected by the reflectors, and
wherein a linear portion of each of the at least two extensive boundary elements extend parallel to each other, and wherein the linear portion of each of the at least two extensive boundary elements extend in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle.
