When I'm driving the handbrake light comes back on sometimes, especially when coasting, slowing or stopped. What does this signify?

Probably that your handbrake needs adjusting. Too much play in the lever.
On some cars, it's also an indicator of low brake fluid

on peugeots its the handbrake switch that causes the problem
if you have an info display (406/607 etc) then it will say "brake fluid level low" but its an intermittant switch causing it
Usually, the handbrake light doubles up as wear indicator for the brake pads. Most probably worn pads.
Check your brake fluid cap is on properly. - Muppets I my local garage left mine off and the same problem occured.
