The present invention provides a vehicle headlight that can improve visual responsiveness during nighttime driving. The vehicle headlight includes a processor configured to control at least one light source so as to radiate light directed to a road surface forward of a vehicle and form a first light distribution pattern having a hot zone at a central region in the vehicle width direction, and to radiate light toward a roadside forward of the vehicle and form a second light distribution pattern having a hot zone at a position offset outwardly in the vehicle width direction from the hot zone of the first light distribution pattern, in an overlapped area with the first light distribution pattern. The irradiation range of light directed at the objects on the roadside has an upper edge part that extends in a direction inclined inwardly in the vehicle width direction forward of the vehicle.
