It sounds like you may have a problem in the hydraulic system or the caliper. Hydraulic systems are routed 2 ways for brakes, either front and rear, or a diagonal split. To see if it's in the system, apply the brakes and see if only the one wheel is affected. If not, look at the proportioning valve or master cylinder. If it is, try opening the bleed screw on the affected caliper and have a helper lightly press on the brakes. You should see a steady stream of fluid with no bubbles in it. If not, the rubber line is probably damaged. If you do, the caliper itself may be seized. For any brake problem, make 100% sure you are comfortable doing the work. You don't what a failure while driving. If not, seek competent professional help. I have related links attached to my bio here at Wiki.

What type of license do you need to drive a 18 passenger vehicle?
At a minimum, a Class C Commercial Drivers Licence with Passenger endorsement and no air brake restriction (if the vehicle is equipped with air brakes). If the vehicle has a GVWR of over 26,000 lbs (which is a bit unlikely with an 18 passenger vehicle), then a Class B CDL would be required, again with the Passenger endorsement and without a restriction on air brakes, if the vehicle were so equipped.
