Disconnect them, or take the bulbs out.

If they are on, it could fail for showing a light other than red to the rear, although the regs describe specific bulbs and the reverse lamp is not one of them.


It would get you stopped by the Police if they follow you and it is on when moving forwards.


From The Road Vehicles Lighting Regulations 1989


27. No person shall use, or cause or permit to be used, on a road any vehicle on which any lamp, hazard warning signal device or warning beacon of a type specified in an item in column 2 of the Table below is used in a manner specified in that item in column 3.

4 Reversing lamp Used so as to be lit except for the purpose of reversing the vehicle.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)
