Is there a contest watchdog to make sure winners are notified, and that (car) contest is legitimate?

A contest at www.driving.ca in nov06 offered a new vehicle and
the notice has disappeared from view.

Most contests have an outside agency running it for the company. That is why you send your enteries and requests for game pieces to Blair, Nebraska and not to company giving the prize itself.

There are certain laws that must be obeyed in running contests Among these is that you must actually give the prizes out.

I have no idea what is going on with this particular contest, but my guess is they are legit.

no, often they are just a way to get you hooked into something.
