I can't remember what a '97 Taurus has for an emergency brake. The ones with a handle (usually between the seats) You pull a little bit of strain on it then press the button on the end and push it down. The ones with a pedal, You push it down all the way and it should release. If neither work your brake could be stuck on and you would have to take the wheels apart to fix it.
