Default RE: brake problems

I think I'd have that checked out pronto. You may have two different problems going on. The back brakes may be out of adjustment or some components may be loose, allowing them to hang up when you back up.

The front wheel locking could be a wheel bearing, loose caliper. Hard to say, but it could have a severe result if it's not taken care of.

I'd get it checked out. It's impossible to diagnose over the Internet. Could be a simple fix, but until it is fixed, your life may be in the balance.
