Answer 1

Take Me to My Friend
early 70s. A girl and her grandmother are on a car trip and they pick up two teens (they think are boys but one turns out to be a girl). The teens take over the car and put the girl and grandmother in peril. They hide their traveling money in a knitting bag and the teens don't know it is there and spitefully throw it out of the car and then they have to go back for it when it is revealed about the money. The girl ties a red scarf on the car antenna to allow the car to be spotted by rescuers.

Jordan, Hope Dahle, Three Desperate Days, 1967. I think this is the book you are looking for. There is an alternate title, Take Me to my Friend which is in reference to the sign the hitchhiker had. Julie is the name of the girl and she has to drive her grandmother from Florida to someplace up north. I remember that she doesn't like to drive and is afraid of crossing a bridge. She hides her grandmother's rings in a ball of yarn so the hitchhikers can't get them. Her boyfriend was supposed to meet them on the way home by putting a red ribbon on the car's antennae. So that's how they get rescued.
