the final empty sign is, your car not running anymore.

why have a second sign or light?; if you'd ignore it like the first one

tell your brother he owes you $40 for a tank of gas. the light comes on when you are ~3 gallons left. there is no second light, come on, use some common sense

It usually comes on about a little more than 4 gallons left in the tank. I usually fill up right around when it comes on and usually put back in 12.5 gallons, and the tank is rated about 17.1 gallons. You drove around a day after the light came on? I've driven it close to end where its pegged on "E" and still had at least 2 gallons left. How much did you drive after the light came on? 150+miles?
