I am sure others have good solutions, but I've had luck in the past with 
my huge blue war shield.  There's nothing like it in the world for 
announcing that you are a scadian in need.  It might be useful to carry 
two pieces of wood so you can prop up your shield a short way down the 
road from the car.  For those without a shield, try a banner, perhaps 
red, with the society arms on it.

Oh, and hope that you're not the last one to leave the site... :)
