Taylor Swift concert bracelets saved young teens’ lives.
Taylor Swift hands out light-up bracelets that synchronize to her music at all of her concerts and apparently, those same bracelets helped save teens’ lives.
WBRZ2 reports that three young women were involved in a car accident on their way home from a Taylor Swift concert in Baton Rouge. The accident occured when the driver, Elizabeth Dazzio, fell asleep on the wheel and totaled the car. Dazzio was knocked unconscious and the remaining passengers used the lights from their Taylor Swift bracelets to signal for help.
Dazzio was driving her sister, Caroline, and a friend home from the show when she fell asleep and wrecked near the I-110/Scenic Highway exit. Dazzio was knocked unconscious, the car was mangled up and the two girls were trapped. “You could smell the gas and smoke,” Caroline said. “I was just thinking we need to get out of this car.”
The girls began waving their bracelets which caught the attention of another driver:
Eventually, someone stopped. A woman told the girls she saw the lights and knew someone was in trouble. “She could tell that there was someone in the car,” Caroline told WBRZ reporter Brett Buffington in an exclusive interview on WBRZ News 2 at 10:00 Wednesday. The woman and a man with her helped pull the girls out and called for first responders
Elizabeth Dazzio is still in the hospital, but reports suggest she will be released soon.
