if your ebrake is well adjusted, then you might get some brake drag

if i was concerned about doing this on my own vehicle, i would just wire in a secondary / manual brake switch switch. in parallel with the brake switch if its normally open, or in series if the brake switch is normally closed

imo - i do think the running lights help you be seen. accidents aside, if you have to hit the brakes slightly more often because of people pulling out in front of you, that will really eat into the 25watt or so savings
