1. A vehicle lamp comprising:
- a primary light source module having an LED as a light source and a primary light source optical axis along which the LED emits light;
a primary optical system for distributing light from the primary light source module frontward and toward a primary predetermined area, the primary optical system having a primary optical system optical axis along which light is directed from the primary optical system, the primary optical system including, a primary reflector configured to direct light frontward along the primary optical system optical axis, and a shading member located adjacent the primary light source module, wherein the primary light source axis is substantially perpendicular with respect to the primary optical system optical axis; and
a second primary light source module having a second LED as a light source and a second primary light source optical axis along which the second LED emits light, wherein the second primary light source optical axis extends in a direction substantially opposite the primary light source optical axis.

Abstract
A vehicle lamp can include a plurality of light source modules each having an LED as a light source, and optical systems for distributing light from each of the light source modules frontward toward predetermined areas or predetermined patterns that are different from each other and which make up a light distribution pattern. Each of the optical systems can be optimized to emit light to a predetermined area, and each of the light source modules'"'"' LEDs can be optimally arranged for each of the corresponding optical systems.
