Abstract: An operation member is switchable between a first operation position, a second operation position, and a third operation position. When operating force is released while the operation member is at the third operation position, the operation member returns to the second operation position. The controller is switchable between a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the controller sets the headlight to high beam when the operation member is at the first operation position or the third operation position, and sets the headlight to low beam when the operation member is at the second operation position. In the second mode, the controller controls to change an illumination mode by the light according to a situation acquired by the situation acquisition unit. The switching from the first mode to the second mode is performed by holding the operation member at the third operation position for a first threshold time or more.
