Brake lights are designed to light up automatically whenever the brakes are used. This is understandably critical to 
safe driving conditions because it gives drivers behind you a distinguishing warning for when your speed is about to change.
Driving behind someone with broken or malfunctioning brake lights is both frustrating and dangerous because the extended delay between their change in maneuvering and your comprehension of this change greatly increases the likelihood of an accident.
