What about brake lights?

Brake lights, are red steady-burning rear lights and are brighter than taillights. They are required to be located to the rear of a vehicle and are activated when the brakes are applied.

How do I know if a brake light is going bad?

If you suspect a brake light is bad, have someone look at your vehicle to see if the light comes on when you tap the brakes. Usually the problem is a burnt-out bulb; it could also be a short or bad connection in the wiring. If a brake light won't turn off, a brake light switch on the brake pedal could also be out of adjustment or just plain faulty.
