Default Faint Beeping?

I apologize if this has been posted before! I went to re-park my IS250 (this was the first time I drove without the radio or Ipod on). While I was driving, I noticed a faint: "Beep, beep" noise come from some indiscernible location. I think it was happening in intervals, not sure. Anyone know what's happening or am I crazy?

Hmmm, but it was happening while I was driving, not parking?

I don't clearly remember but, leaving the parking brake on causes a beep too?

any warning lights come on when the beeping stopped? maybe it was a truck reversing next to you?

Did you have the paddle shifters on? Did you paddle down to too low of a gear for your current speed? Were you perhaps driving "aggressively" and perhaps loose traction? I've gotten a beep from both of the above mentioned actions while driving.

sometimes I think my car beeps, but since the beeps seem to be random; I can't decide if my car really beeps or I am just crazy and imagined it.
