Vehicle headlights (20) are equipped with a right-side lamp (40), a left-side lamp (40), and a control unit (110). A right-side light distribution pattern (430) and a left-side light distribution pattern (450) include an overlapping area (471) and a non-overlapping area (473). In a case where the steering angle is greater than the prescribed angle, the control unit (110) controls power supplied to respective light-emitting parts of the right-side lamp and power supplied to respective light-emitting parts of the left-side lamp such that: a first area of a first light distribution pattern is located in the non-overlapping area (473) of the first light distribution pattern; a second area of a second light distribution pattern is located in the overlapping area (471); and a first intensity of the light in the first area becomes greater than the sum of a second intensity of the light in the second area and a third intensity of the light in the area overlapping the second area within the first light distribution pattern.
