Angry Car wont move forward, smoke comes out the hoop!

Today I drove my ES330 with my family in the morning, I noticed that the car is stalling and wont speed up even I stepped on the gas, then I started to smell burning smell and smoke came out from the hoop. I made a turn to a parking(the car stalled even more) and opened up the hoop, did not see any things leaking and smoke already gone (of course, what do I know), I close the hoop and start the car, it only drove about a 100 feet and the car totally stop and the front wheels seem locked up, the engine is running but just wont move forward. I called the AAA for towing, but when the tow guy came, he started the car, back it up with no problem and also drive good. For the safety purpose, the tow guy followed me all the way home, what a nice guy!!! Anyone know what is going on??? I am planning to take the car to the shop for check up but want to know more on the problem....... help, anyone?????

no one can assist with that problem over the internet. You need a mechanic.
