A light emitting element driving device includes a first and second driving circuits, an abnormality detecting portion, a bypass path, and a switching portion. The first driving circuit can supply power to a light emitting element in a first mode, and is disabled to supply power in a mode other than the first mode. The second driving circuit can supply power to a light emitting element in a second mode. The abnormality detecting portion detects an abnormality of the light emitting element normally connected to the second driving circuit at least in the second mode. The bypass path connects the first driving circuit to the second driving circuit. The switching portion is disposed in the bypass path so as to make the bypass path into a conductive state when an abnormality is detected, and to make the bypass path into a cutoff state when an abnormality is not detected.
