ABSTRACT:
A head lamp device for a vehicle in which a light distribution can be properly adjusted in response to a state of a road or a running environment and visibility can be improved is provided. The head lamp device for a vehicle capable of adjusting a lighting region in a forward direction of the vehicle comprises proper vehicle position sensing means for sensing a proper vehicle running position in a lateral direction of a road, and control means for calculating a distance from the proper vehicle running position to a center line on the road and adjusting a lighting region of the head lamp in such a way that the lighting region is expanded more and more toward the center line as the calculated distance is longer and longer.
