The rear brake lights and ability to shift out of park are both controlled by a switch in the brake pedal assembly. This switch tells the car the brake pedal has been pressed down.
A failed brake pedal position sensor can prevent the brake lights from coming on, prevent the shift lever from being moved from Park, and prevent the turning of the ignition cylinder to the complete off position to remove the key.
It's the weekend, more of our mechanically inclined members will be back tomorrow. They should be able to give you more information.
