A headlamp (20) is provided which employs semiconductor light sources, such as light emitting diodes, and which includes light sources which can selectively be illuminated to provide steerable light beam patterns, to illuminate areas adjacent the optical axis of the headlamp, and corner light elements (48) which can be illuminated to illuminate the area (corresponding to light beam pattern 114) adjacent the steerable light beam patterns (102-110) further from the optical axis of the headlamp. The corner light elements (48) can be illuminated after the steerable light beam patterns (102-110) have been provided or can be illuminated independently of the steerable light patterns, for example responsive to the activation of a turn signal.
