Claim:
A vehicle light, comprising: a reflector; a light-transmitting cover pane; at least one first light source assigned to the reflector in order to form a first lighting system, light from the at least one first light source being emitted from the light-transmitting cover pane via the reflector; and a screen arranged in front of the at least one first light source in a direction of the cover pane, wherein the screen is constructed as a second lighting system including at least a second light source, wherein light intensities of the first and second lighting systems are individually adjustable to form a tail light and brake light in such a way that the first and second lighting systems both produce light to form the tail light and brake light, wherein the first and second light sources are each constructed as a plurality of red light-emitting diodes, wherein the red light-emitting diodes of the second lighting system are arranged on a forward side of a carrier plate that forms the screen, the forward side facing the cover pane; and wherein the red light-emitting diodes of the first lighting system are arranged on a rearward side of the carrier plate facing the reflector.
