"You could smell the gas and smoke," a passenger said. "I was just thinking we need to get out of this car."
Two of three phones in the car were dead, the girls could not find the third.
Cars passed and none stopped so the girls used bracelets from the show, that had been programmed and synced to the beat of the music, as emergency flares to get the attention of people driving by.

Eventually, someone stopped. A woman told the girls she saw the lights and knew someone was in trouble.
The woman and a man with her helped pull the girls out and called for emergency services.
