Warning light on dash? help

Hey, sorry if this has been covered before, i tried to search it but couldnt find anything! Just drove 2 hours to my parents place and i have a warning light come up, its a circle with three dashes each side. Does anyone know what this means? car drives fine!

Sorry about That

Just looked it up & it means that the, (or one of the), Brake Pads have worn down & need replacing.
Bet you were happier with the first answer

a photo of it would help to confirm that it could be the brake sensor warning light

The first answers was the best, as it meant i didnt have to spend any money! Cheers for looking it up, i thought it might be the brakes, i was driving a little quick! Would post a pic but my camera is at home and the parents live in the stone age

Cheers for your help tho

Paul
