When a car has a rear light not working, it's usually the left side that's bust. This applies equally to brake & side/running lights.

Any idea why?

Confirmation bias.

If* there is any truth to this, it's probably because it's the nearside of the car - near all the potholes and puddles.

* I suspect confirmation bias

I'd go with the previous two answers: Vibration and or confirmation bias.

I have found that whenever a rear light goes out on my car it is ALWAYS one of the lights at the back that goes.

Can anyone explain this?

Is it because they are German?

Someone you live with is f*cking with you, the left side of your car is closest to your house.
