To earn a Wyoming learner’s permit, you must pass a vision screening and a written permit knowledge test. The test consists of 25 multiple-choice questions covering Wyoming traffic laws, road signs, safe driving practices, and vehicle operation as described in the state’s Department of Transportation Manual. To pass, you must answer at least 20 (80%) correctly. Wyoming does not offer an online option for the permit test, so testing must take place in person at the DOT.
Our Wyoming permit practice test is current for May 2026 and mimics what you will face on the official written test, with questions and answers based on the 2026 Driver Handbook. Our practice tests provide instant feedback so that if you miss a question, you’ll know right away why a different response is better. New to the process? Watch our 60-second video on how to get your Wyoming learner’s permit for a quick step-by-step overview.
Once you’re ready, go to the DOT with proof of identity (birth certificate or passport), proof of Social Security number, proof of residency, and parental or guardian consent for applicants under 18. Submit the documents, pass a vision screening, pay the fee, and take the official written test.
If you fail the test, you must wait at least 24 hours and pay a retesting fee.
In Wyoming, the Graduated Driver’s License (GDL) program applies to applicants under 18. At age 15, teens can apply for a learner’s permit, which requires adult supervision from a licensed driver aged 18 or older (unlike many states that require age 21). After holding the permit for 10 days, completing a state-approved driver education course, and passing a road skills test, teens can apply for an intermediate license. With an intermediate license, you can drive without adult supervision except between 11 PM and 5 AM, unless you’re driving to or from work, school, or church. There are also passenger limitations for the first six months unless you have a licensed driver aged 18 or older with you. Once you are 16½ and have held the intermediate license with no violations for a minimum of six months, you can apply for a full license.

What to expect at the DOT
Where Wyoming test-takers struggle most
Based on 1,426 Wyoming learners who practiced on our site in the last 30 days. 50% pass our practice tests, with an average first-try score of 71%.
Wyoming's open highways are prone to sudden blizzards and high crosswinds, particularly through mountain passes and on the plains. Reduce speed well before road conditions deteriorate, and increase your following distance to at least 4 seconds on snow or ice.
At a four-way stop, the first vehicle to stop is the first to go. When two vehicles stop at the same time, the driver on the left yields to the driver on the right. A vehicle already in the intersection has the right-of-way over one that is waiting to enter.
You must park parallel to the curb and within 18 inches of it. On a two-lane road, never park facing oncoming traffic. Parking is prohibited within 20 feet of a crosswalk and within 50 feet of a railroad crossing.
Green signs indicate directions, distances, and highway exits. Mile marker signs tell you your exact location on a highway and are used by emergency services when you call for help - knowing your nearest mile marker is useful when reporting a breakdown.
A broken white line between lanes allows lane changes when it is safe to do so. A solid white line means you should stay in your lane - crossing it is allowed only in emergencies. Yellow lines separate traffic moving in opposite directions; white lines separate traffic moving in the same direction.

Wyoming-specific rules you must know
Rules that are unique to Wyoming or differ from most other states
Wyoming allows 14- and 15-year-olds to apply for a hardship permit with approval from the Highway Patrol if they can demonstrate a genuine need, such as transporting family members or traveling to school in a rural area. This is one of the very few such provisions in the US.
Wyoming prohibits texting while driving but does not ban handheld phone use generally. Drivers can legally hold and talk on a phone while driving. This is one of the most permissive mobile phone laws in the country.
Wyoming does not use a traditional numbered point system for violations. Instead, accumulating 4 convictions within any 12-month period triggers a license suspension. The focus is on the count of violations rather than weighted point totals.
Wyoming driver's licenses issued to active military personnel carry no expiration date during their service, marked with an "I" restriction code. The license remains valid until the service member returns to Wyoming and renews through the standard process.

Sample Wyoming permit test questions
6 questions written and verified by our content team against the current Wyoming Driver Handbook
- Question 1 of 6
What is the legal speed limit on Wyoming interstate highways, unless otherwise posted?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - 75 mph
Wyoming's default interstate speed limit is 75 mph unless otherwise posted. Some stretches are posted at 80 mph. Secondary highways default to 70 mph, residential areas to 30 mph, and school zones to 20 mph. (Ch. Rules of the Road - Speed, p.41)
- Question 2 of 6
Under Wyoming's Move Over Law, what must you do when approaching a stopped emergency vehicle on a two-lane road with a posted speed limit of 45 mph or greater?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - Slow to a speed that is 20 mph below the posted limit
On a two-lane road with a posted speed limit of 45 mph or greater, the driver must slow to a speed that is 20 mph below the posted limit when passing a stopped emergency or maintenance vehicle with lights or other emergency signals activated. On highways with two or more lanes in the same direction, drivers must instead merge into the lane farthest from the vehicle, or at least into a non-adjacent lane. This has been the law since July 2018. (Ch. Sharing the Road Safely - Move Over Law, p.71-72)
- Question 3 of 6
A holder of a Wyoming intermediate license may NOT drive between which hours unless an exception applies?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.
Intermediate license holders in this state may not drive between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. unless they meet an exception and complete and sign an intermediate permit driving exception form. The intermediate license holder must present this form to law enforcement in the event of a traffic stop. Some acceptable exceptions are driving for a medical necessity (certified by medical personnel), driving to or from work (certified by employer), driving to or from school, and driving to or from a religious activity (certified by parent or legal guardian). (Ch. License Services - Intermediate Licenses, p.14)
- Question 4 of 6
At what age must a child in Wyoming be secured in a child restraint system (car seat)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D - Under 9 years old
State law requires that any child who has not reached his or her ninth birthday be properly secured in an appropriate child restraint system. The fine is $60 for a first offense and $110 for subsequent offenses. The first-offense fine may be waived by a court upon proof that the driver obtained an approved restraint after the violation. (Ch. Safety Laws/Issues - Child Restraints, p.30)
- Question 5 of 6
If you are under 21 and found to be in actual physical control of a vehicle with a BAC of 0.02% or more, what happens to your license for a first offense?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - 90-day suspension
Drivers younger than 21 face a 90-day suspension for a first offense when caught with a BAC of two one-hundredths of one percent (0.02%) or more. A second offense within two years results in a six-month suspension. The 0.02% threshold is far lower than the standard 0.08% for adults. (Ch. Losing the Privilege to Drive - Youthful Driver Suspension, p.22)
- Question 6 of 6
A restricted license issued to a 14- or 15-year-old in Wyoming is valid only during certain hours and within what distance of the licensee's residence?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - 50 miles
Restricted licenses for 14- and 15-year-olds are valid between 5 a.m. and 8 p.m. and only within 50 miles of the holder's residence. The applicant must live five or more miles from school and/or employment, and the Wyoming Highway Patrol must approve the application. One moving traffic violation or driving outside the designated hours or radius will result in suspension. The license expires 30 days after the holder's 16th birthday. (Ch. License Services - Age Restricted Licenses, p.13)
