An automotive lamp includes a temperature-sensing element having an electrical state that changes according to the temperature T of a semiconductor light source, and a constant current driver that generates a driving current ILED that corresponds to the temperature T. The maximum value of the temperature differential of the driving current ILED in a first temperature range from a reference temperature T0 to a first temperature T1 (T1>T0) is smaller than the maximum value of the temperature differential of the driving current ILED in a second temperature range from the first temperature T1 to a second temperature T2 (T2>T1).
