I'll assume the battery has not gone bad on you. So, it looks like battery is not getting charged as you drive - or only being charged when engine rev's are above a certain level. And that is reinforced by the appearance of the battery warning light. So check alternator and voltage regulator after checking the basics. Make sure battery connections and ground connection are good. Check the alternator belt is not slipping. After that, if no joy, you will have to check alternator output and/or regulator (are the brushes getting worn?)
