The SRS light is on because of a possible air bag or seat belt problem, that will have to be checked by the dealer.
The other brake likes came on because of a glitish in the ABS. What were you going when the brake lights came on, do you brakes squeak, or the wheels covered in brake dust?

this same thing happened 2 me but not the srs light... my brakes squeak very slighty, i talked 2 a dealer, they told me it could be a computer malfunction or some electrical brake sensor could be bad... any ideas

Wdriving down a dirt road can trip out overly sensitive brake system. Mine go on once or twice a year, but I am pretty hard on my truck, usually happens when brakes are hot, have too much dust on the rotors and one of your wheel sensors will tr=hrow a false code. When most shops read the codes, it will usually show a bad wheel sensor when in fact it was heat and dust.
Hose your brakes out and go have the codes read, if it is a wheel sensor let the shop you want to drive the truck for some time and see if they come on again. If the lights don't return with in a week you are OK, if it does return, plan on replacing a sensor.
Good luck,
Mike
