A vehicle head lamp is disclosed for use in a vehicle, and includes a plurality of semiconductor light sources which differ in directions of radiation; an optical system disposed for common use by the plurality of semiconductor light sources; and a luminous energy control section for changing a ratio among luminous energies emitted by the respective semiconductor light sources in accordance with a vehicle-originated signal provided by a vehicle-side. In addition, the luminous energy control section may change the ratio among the luminous energy in accordance with a rotation angle by means of receiving a signal indicating a rotation angle of a steering wheel as the vehicle-originated signal.
