A headlight exclusively for irradiating a light beam for a vehicle passing by in the opposite direction includes a light source and a reflective mirror as essential components. The reflective mirror has a first reflective surface having a contour of revolving parabolic plane on an upper half of the reflective mirror, a second reflective surface having a contour of revolving parabolic plane arranged at the central part of a lower half of the reflective mirror, and two reflective surfaces each having a contour of a cylindrical parabolic plane arranged on the opposite side of the second reflective surface on the lower half of the reflective mirror. The last-mentioned reflective surfaces comprise a first surface and a second surface. The first surface serves to allow the light beam to be converged in the shape of substantially parallel light beam as seen in one direction, and the second surface serves in the same manner as the first surface in another direction at a right angle relative to the former. The headlight may be designed in the upside-down relationship relative to the aforementioned headlight such that all of the essential components are arranged upside down.
In a headlight exclusively usable for irradiating a light beam for vehicle passing by in an opposite direction, said headlight including a light source and a reflective mirror, and said headlight emitting light in an irradiating direction,
