Provided is a lighting control device capable of reducing the lighting delay when a light source is turned on/off in accordance with the bank angle of a vehicle. The lighting control device which controls the lighting state of the light source sets the time period required for turning on the light source to be shorter as the vehicle speed is higher when the inclination angle of a vehicle body in the vehicle width direction is larger than a reference value, and causes the light source to be fully turned on over the set time period. The lighting control device also sets the time period required for turning off the light source to be shorter as the vehicle speed is higher when the inclination angle of a vehicle body is smaller than a reference value, and causes the light source to be dimmed and turned off over the set time period.
