If he's on the road and just needs to get home, it's certainly possible to drive with no clutch. I've done it many times, once in Sunday afternoon traffic trying to get through Santa Barbara. It's quite easy if the synchros are still good.

"I long ago lost a hound, a bay horse, and a turtle dove, and am still on their trail. Many are the travelers I have spoken to concerning them, describing their tracks and what calls they answered to. I have met one or two who had heard the hound, and the tramp of the horse, and even seen the dove disappear behind a cloud, and they seemed as anxious to recover them as if they had lost them themselves." - henry thoreau
