Can you drive with parking brake on?

Can driving with the parking brake on damage your brakes? For the most part, leaving the parking brake on while driving does not cause any long-lasting problems when driving for a short distance or at minimal speeds. When you leave the parking brake on, it creates friction between the brake pad and the rotors.

How do you unfreeze a brake line?

Hammer on the top and bottom of the drum and then get back into the cab and try to rock the truck back and forth. You can also cut the air supply and resupply the trailer with air a couple of times to use the pressure to break the ice. Repeat until the brake releases.
