I suggest you have a tow to a transmission shop or garage. There is nothing you can do beside call AAA or roadside assistance. If the transmission does not upshift out of first, and the speedometer reads zero at all times it could be a VSS failure. That means the rear of transmission needs to be fixed and the transmission needs to come out in order to access the VSS.
