What has caused this? (pics)
Discussion
I took off my handbrake last week and pulled off and the car made a banging noise, similar to when you rip your brake pads off because they're stuck to the rotors (i have done one this on another car). The car had been used everyday and not laid up. The brakes seem fine but every morning when i take the hand brake off the car wont move until i rock it and there is a very low grinding noise the first few times i apply the brake.
i took the car to the garage and the mechanic said that the pads were sticking to the disc rotor and all it needed was some cleaning a lube and its now ok. However when looking at one of my disc rotors, it has the marks shown in the picture, this is only on one disc rotor. do you have any idea what could of caused this? could this just be from moving whilst the brake pads are stuck to the disc rotor? or are the pads worn down?

The scoring was there before I took the car to the garage.
I’m asking what may have caused the scoring? The mechanic said I didn’t need any new parts so the brake pads must be fine and not worn down. Therefore I’m presuming the scoring was caused by the wheel moving when the brake pad was stuck to the disc. I was just hoping to ask people who may have some helpful and knowledgable input.
