A scanning light source 200A includes a semiconductor light source 212, and scans an instantaneous illumination spot SPT based on the output light of the semiconductor light source 212 in the horizontal direction of the light distribution. A lighting circuit 300J is capable of providing multi-gradation dimming of the amount of light provided by the semiconductor light source 212 at each scanning position in synchronization with the scanning of the scanning light source 200A. The lighting circuit 300J is switchable between the first mode in which the semiconductor light source 212 is controlled by pulse width modulation with a duty cycle that corresponds to the dimming ratio and the second mode in which the semiconductor light source 212 is turned off over the number of cycles that corresponds to the dimming ratio.
