The switch on the transmission is bad. It usually looks like a bolt with two wires going to it. Check a service manual they are easy to replace.
Both a stuck reverse switch and shorted wiring can be causes for reverse lights to stay on. Under normal circumstances, the reverse lights turn off as soon as the vehicle is shifted out of reverse.
Either the reverse switch is defective or out of adjustment.
If reverse lights stay on while the vehicle is in drive, it could indicate a malfunction in the transmission's neutral safety switch or the reverse light switch, both of which are responsible for activating the reverse lights. Additionally, a wiring issue or short circuit could be causing the lights to remain illuminated. It's advisable to have the vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic to diagnose and resolve the issue properly.

Where is the fuse located for the reverse lights
Sounds like the reverse switch is either damaged, or wired backwards... Did you have your clutch done recently?
Check your fuses
Cracked electrical wire caused this to my car once.
Reverse switch on trans. is, most-likely, broken or stuck on somehow. You need to check it and/or replace it.
