I didn't know for the longest time either. I finally saw why in Europe. The answer is...Its for when you park your car along a curb or on the side of the road. Depending on which side you park on, you can turn the designated parking light on so as the car will be visible at night to people who are driving on that road or street. It makes the car visible so no one hopefully hits it driving by. Hope This Helped. Joe

Probably the rubber bumper/stopper which depresses the brake switch is gone/disintegrated. Check beneath the brake pad for broken pieces. Without this piece in place, the switch is always closed and therefore powered to light up the lights.
