** As for the phone flashlight, the light would probably be visible if aimed at the diner or another place where people are. Flashlight beams don't carry far if the goal is for the holder to illuminate things, but they can be seen _very_ far by others as a point of light against a dark backdrop like the night sky. It's a good idea for outdoor adventurers to install an app for sending an SOS via flashlight.

** Flashlight beams don't carry all that far. Blocking the red light in an SOS pattern might've been more effective, provided they could jury-rig a way to do it.

They couldn't have signaled SOS with the flashlights on their phones? Maybe after breaking the red signal light, so everyone would notice?
