The required minimum for bodily injury liability is $25,000 when a single person is hurt in a crash you cause. You may buy higher limits, but a $15,000 policy would fall short of the minimum.
Wyoming gives new residents 30 days to transfer a vehicle's registration from their previous state; after that, a resident may no longer drive legally on out-of-state plates.
For a minor collision with an unattended vehicle, Wyoming requires you either to track down the owner or to leave a written note with your contact details firmly attached to the vehicle. A call to the Highway Patrol is not required in this situation, so the note is the only mandatory step.
Wyoming suspends a driver's license for no less than 3 months (90 days) after a first DUI conviction, and repeat convictions bring considerably longer suspensions.
Alcohol makes it hard to hold a lane, judge speed, and react smoothly, so impaired drivers often weave, drive unusually slowly, and brake or stop without warning. If you notice these signs, keep well back and report the driver to police when it is safe.
Under implied consent, getting a license and driving on public roads count as advance agreement to chemical testing, such as a breath test, when you are arrested on suspicion of drunk driving. Refusing the test usually brings its own penalties, including loss of your license.
An instruction permit of this kind sets no time-of-day limit, so you may practice at any hour of the day or night, as long as a qualified licensed driver sits beside you. Each fixed time window describes a restriction that this permit does not impose.
One standard drink equals either 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits; each holds about the same amount of alcohol. Choosing beer or wine over liquor does not make you any less impaired.
A WYDOT examiner will not begin a test in a car that is unsafe, lacks seat belts, or has equipment that would block the examiner from reaching the brake, because each of these puts the examiner and the applicant at risk.
Courts commonly order DUI offenders to complete an alcohol education program, along with fines, loss of driving privileges, and possible jail time. A DUI conviction never ends with just a small fine, and the device a court may require is an ignition interlock, not a speed limiter.
Wyoming allows 10 days after a move to update your address with the licensing office, which keeps your records current and ensures official notices reach you.
Drivers under 21 are held to a zero-tolerance rule: a reading of 0.02% or more brings penalties such as license suspension, far below the 0.08% adult limit. Even a single drink can bring a young driver close to that level, so the only safe plan is not to drink before driving.
