ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a light control apparatus for a vehicle, in which a control function is activated when an ignition switch or an accessory switch is turned on, and which, when the switch is turned off with headlights and/or sidemarker lights kept ON, keeps the headlights and/or the sidemarker lights ON, for example, until the driver's side door is opened, wherein the light control apparatus includes an operation identifying means for identifying whether the OFF operation of the switch is an operation performed by operating a key or an operation performed in response to a signal transmitted from outside the vehicle and wherein, when the OFF operation of the switch is identified by the operating identifying means as not being an operation performed by operating the key, the headlights and/or the sidemarker lights are turned off regardless of whether the driver's side door has been opened or not.
