Everything a Wyoming parent needs in one place — required practice hours, night-driving rules, permit age, and what the written test looks like — plus a free log that keeps the hours straight.
Requirements summarized from the official Wyoming driver handbook.
Wyoming requires every vehicle occupant, including the driver, to wear a safety belt. The driver is responsible for compliance, and children must be properly secured in appropriate child-restraint systems.
Unless otherwise posted, Wyoming speed limits are 80 mph or 75 mph on Interstate Highways, 70 mph on Secondary Highways, 30 mph in Residential and Business Areas, and 20 mph in School Zones. The absolute speed limit in a school zone is 20 mph.
A chemical test showing an alcohol concentration of 0.08 percent or greater results in a 90-day Administrative Per Se Suspension; for a first DWUI, a BAC of .15% or greater requires an ignition interlock restricted license for 6 months. Wyoming law prohibits reading or sending a text message from a cell phone or other device while operating a vehicle.
The absolute speed limit in a school zone is 20 mph; stop for a stopped school bus with flashing red lights from either direction unless a physical barrier or separate roadways divide you from the bus. Yield to pedestrians in a marked crosswalk on your side, when lawfully turning on red after a complete stop, and to blind pedestrians using a clearly visible white cane or guide dog.
On a highway with two or more lanes, merge into the lane farthest from a parked authorized emergency or specified service vehicle displaying flashing lights or visual signals. On roads with only one lane in each direction, slow to at least 20 mph below the speed limit when approaching a parked emergency vehicle.
At a roundabout, slow down and yield to pedestrians and traffic already in the roundabout; once inside, keep moving and yield to pedestrians when exiting. Drivers must also yield to pedestrians in a marked crosswalk on their side of the roadway.
