It's probably your bulb failure light. Normally the bulb failure light will illuminate "full time" when a bulb is dead, however because brake lights are only on when you depress the brake pedal, the failure light will only illuminate when you're hitting your brakes. Because it is intermittent may mean that the bulb is lose, or on its way out. Next time this happens, just back up near a reflective surface (glass window on storefront) and tap the brakes and see which one is out. They're easy to get to from the trunk.
