VEHICLE LAMP AND CONTROL APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE LAMP

A vehicle lamp includes: a combination unit including a low beam unit that projects a low beam light distribution pattern and a high beam unit that projects a high beam light distribution pattern above the low beam light distribution pattern. The high beam unit is capable of road surface drawing. The combination unit is capable of switching between a first irradiation direction in which the low beam light distribution pattern irradiates a predefined low beam region and a second irradiation direction lower than the first irradiation direction. The high beam unit is configured to execute road surface drawing and illuminate a road surface to complement the low beam light distribution pattern, when the first combination unit is directed in the second irradiation direction.
