MOTOR VEHICLE LIGHTING DEVICE WITH A PLURALITY OF LIGHT SOURCES WITH RESPECTIVE PAIRED COVER SEGMENTS WHICH CAN BE SWITCHED SO AS TO BE OPAQUE; MOTOR VEHICLE; AND METHOD

The present disclosure relates to a motor vehicle lighting device comprising a lighting element with a plurality of light sources and a cover element which is designed to change between a transparent operating state and an opaque operating state. In order to allow an improved display of contours on a motor vehicle lighting device, the cover element has a plurality of cover segments, wherein each cover segment can be actuated individually with respect to the transparent and opaque operating state, and the motor vehicle lighting device has a light guiding element, said light guiding element being designed such that light emitted by the plurality of light sources is guided from a plurality of first coupling surfaces, at which the light guiding element is optically coupled to each of the light sources, to a plurality of second coupling surfaces, at which the light guiding element is optically coupled to each of the cover segments, each of the second coupling surfaces than bigger than the first coupling surfaces
