Check hand brake switch under the plastic housing where handbreak is.

Dodgy earth connection on battery possibly.

don't worry,check your brakes,start with the front ones,if they are worn out,then the brake fluid level goes down,so when you go up a hill,or drive through a corner,the stop light turn on with the handbrake light as well,and it beep,happen with my car Very Happy
