Women make up more than half of the drivers on the road, but most girls still don’t know the difference between a lug nut and a dipstick. That’s why Zest Books would love to give you a free copy of In the Driver’s Seat: A Girl’s Guide to Her First Car. To be eligible, all you have to do is send the publisher an email describing the funniest or most embarrassing driving experience you had as a teen! The first five entries win a copy of the bookand as a bonus, they’ll also receive a copy of Crap: How to Deal with Annoying Teachers, Bosses, Backstabbers, and Other Stuff That Stinks. 
Please be sure to include your preferred mailing address as well. Entries must be received by 5 p.m. (PST) on Monday, March 22, 2010. Winners will be notified by email within five days. All entrants will be added to the publisher’s e-news list so they’ll never miss what’s new from Zest.
In the Driver’s Seat encourages girls to get intimate with their four-wheeled friends and provides entertaining information on buying and insuring a car, fixing minor problems, learning what’s under the hood, choosing a mechanic, surviving emergency situations, and styling your ride. Plus, there are fun sidebars and statistics about women behind the wheel.
