Personally, I will drive until the light comes on, or just before it. I try not to run the vehicle to much further after the light came on since most fuel pumps nowadays use the fuel to lubricate and cool the pump. Either way, I don't think it really matters, but I'm a believer in running your vehicle too low too many times can reduce the life of the pump.
