A deformation device for attaching to a crossmember of a bumper and for converting impact energy onto a lighting device has at least two deformation elements arranged in series and orientated in the same direction. The deformation device also has a support element which can be secured to a crossmember of a bumper, wherein the at least two deformation elements are secured to the support element. Each deformation element has an unstructured, flat surface and is designed such that the deformation elements buckle due to a force acting in a first direction and bend due to a force acting in a second direction.
