The last 5-6 days my brakes have been acting funny. Here's what happens...

I start the car up and everything is normal. I slowly roll out of the garage and as soon as my foot touches the brake pedal I feel the ABS kick in and the LOW TRAC light starts flashing. It only does that for a very short moment, maybe 1/8 second or something like that. The next time I touch the brake everything is back to normal.
It only happens when the car has been parked over night. I haven't noticed any loss of brake power or anything else beeing wrong. The brakes work just fine except for that "first start up shutter" in the mornings.

Need I worry about something beeing broken or should I just ignore it [Confused]

Have you waited until the bulb proved out before you backed up? Maybe there is a bad wheel speed sensor that is lazy on sending inputs to the ABS module. [Smile]

Hmmm, I'm not sure [Roll Eyes]
...better pay attention to that the next couple of days and see if it acts any different.
