I have a manual trans car and I attempted to roll out of my driveway with the car off. It started rolling but the wheel was stiff and i couldn't turn it so i held down the break and (emergency break was not on) and I started the car. Then when I started driving, it didn't sound right. Sort of like driving with emergency break on but it wasn't on. Can someone help me and tell me what kind of damage would occur from this?!
Thanks to the people who answered I know this wouldn't do damage but I got in my car a bit later and it's still making this noise with something making a sound in the tires and it beeing slightly harder to steer.
 
dont think you would have done any harm the steering would have been stiff because power steering would not have been working until it started.
 
The resistance you felt was the power steering of the car not kicking in, and also breaking while the vehicle is off means no power breaks either. This should not have caused any damage to the car, but maybe the breaks stuck a little bit, or the emergency break was on just slightly, making an unnatural noise.
