Abstract
A vehicle headlight () includes a first lamp unit (), a second lamp unit (), a region determination unit (), and a control unit (CO). A first irradiation spot (S) overlaps with a second irradiation spot (S). The control unit (CO) controls the first lamp unit () so that an amount of the light of a light emitting element () corresponding to the first irradiation spot (S) overlapping with a predetermined region () is reduced, and controls the second lamp unit () so that an amount of the light of a light emitting element () corresponding to the second irradiation spot (S) overlapping with the predetermined region () is reduced or becomes 0, and light is emitted from the light emitting element () corresponding to the second irradiation spot (S) overlapping with the first irradiation spot (S) and not overlapping with the predetermined region ().
