You can't 'write' a sentence as a prepositional phrase. Sentences contain a subject and a verb and also maybe a prepositional phrases.

through the town is a prepositional phrase.

Jon is the subject drove is the verb car is the object.

Can a sentence have an indirect object without having a direct object?

Of course it can. He spoke to me has no direct object.It also doesn't have an indirect object: "to me" is a prepositional phrase (and "me" is a prepositional object).There is an example of a sentence with an indirect object but no direct object, but only in American: "*Write your grandmother.", meaning "Write to your grandmother.". (When folks on television say, "Write this address!", I want to complain that I've tried writing the address but it just sits there on the piece of paper...!)
