Default driver side brake smoking

whats up ht ill try to clear and simple on my issue.

after not drivig my 97 civic ex coupe for 2 weeks i got in it today and drove it to work. omw there after about 5 miles i can feel my car stopping itself. then i smell something funny. i get to work i get out my car and the front driver side tire / brake is smoking like crazy. i changed my front pads about 2 months ago and just checked em and they still have a good amount of meat on them. how should i address this issue?

Get under there and take it apart and look at it.

5$ says the caliper is seized.
