As a final aside, it is interesting to note that powers of prophecy are most commonly attributed to the darker (and by time-honoured interpretation, evil) characters of this lore, frequently old crones wizened by age, much like the Version B/D Phantom Hitch-Hiker in some examples.
Placing the injured girl on the blanket rather than covering her with it would make more sense if she were being left there while the driver was off seeking help, particularly if the ground was damp.
While on the subject of car blankets, it is interesting to note that one features in Beardsley and Hankey's leading story of a Phantom Hitch-Hiker in their paper 'The Vanishing Hitchhiker' for the California Folklore Quarterly (Volume 1 No.4 (October 1942), pp.303-335).
