My 99 hatch doesnt have a low fuel light, never did. I know coupe and sedans did.

Check your brake fluid, it sounds low. (The movement of the car is raising and lowering the float causing the light to come on during driving.)

My 99 DX coupe doesn't have a gas light either. I usually fill it up when it gets below the 1/4 mark anyway so it doesn't matter.

Check the fluid and make sure it's full. If it is and you're still getting the light check the wire that goes to the switch on your parking brake handle (#2 in thye pic below). Sometimes the wire comes loose and grounds out causing the light to come on.

Hondas are known for gas lights not coming on. Welcome to the early 90s
