most drum brakes are "self energizing" so if the shoes are not fully returning the forward motion of the car will cause them to engage. I would make sure that the shoes move freely. It could be rust in the brake cylinder causing the piston to not return or sticking parking brake components or the like. I suppose overzealous adjustment of the shoes could cause this as well.
