Abstract

A control device of a leaning vehicle for controlling bright lighting and dim lighting for a plurality of oblique areas. When the leaning vehicle is upright, the control device controls the lighting by designating one or more of the plurality of oblique areas as in a brightly lit area to which adaptive lighting control is applied, and by designating the other oblique areas as in a dim area. The dim area includes an uppermost oblique area. When the leaning vehicle turns left or right, as a lean angle in a direction of the turn increases, the control device controls the lighting by designating a second uppermost oblique area that is located immediately below the uppermost oblique area in the up-down direction as in the brightly lit area, and moving the uppermost oblique area from the dim area to the brightly lit area.
