The 1st thing you are going to have to do is determine where the knocking noise is coming from. The is a wide range of things that could make that knocking noise, from something very minor to a major problem. Hopefully yours is minor...
Something to think about for the future. When you start having a car problem, pull over right away. The absolute worst thing you can do is to continue to drive it. With most people the goal is "just to get home", problem being that in just those short few miles could've been the difference between a repairable problem and now needing a complete engine..
Now if your personally safety is involved, then no question, drive the car. A human life is worth way more than any machine but there is a cost.....
