IMO: I would start by having the codes read. You really can't begin to identify the cause, until you have an indication as to which component triggered the lights.

Start by checking how old is the battery and getting a good one.

When different lights come on together, it usually means an electrical issue not the actual part. So driving it should be ok unless you're very unlucky.

You can do a search on the RL forum, I believe there are a number of threads on exactly the same issue as you.
