    Show answer

    Answer: C. 11 p.m. to 5 a.m.

  4. Speed and following distance

    Question 4. Unless a different limit is posted, what is the speed limit in a Wyoming school zone?

    Show answer

    Answer: B. 20 mph

    The Wyoming manual lists 20 mph for school zones and 30 mph for residential and business areas, unless signs say otherwise.

    From Wyoming Rules of the Road — Driver License Manual (2021) · Rules of the Road — Speed: Legal speed limits

  5. Sharing the road

    Question 5. On a two-lane Wyoming road posted at 45 mph or more, an emergency vehicle is stopped with its lights flashing. What does the move over law require?

    Show answer

    Answer: C. Slow to 20 mph below the posted limit

  6. Right of way

    Question 6. A school bus stops with flashing red lights on the other side of a four-lane Wyoming highway that has no median. What must you do?

    Show answer

    Answer: D. Stop, because on an undivided highway traffic in both directions must stop

    On two- or four-lane undivided highways, vehicles going each direction stop for the bus. Only a physical barrier or separate roadway lets traffic on the other side continue.

    Under 21, an alcohol concentration of 0.02 or more means a DWUI suspension: 90 days for a first offense and six months for another within two years.

Wyoming permit test questions people ask

What is on the Wyoming written driver test?

The automated test has three kinds of items: naming signs by shape, color or symbol; reading signals and pavement markings; and multiple-choice questions on traffic laws, safety rules, crash prevention and vehicle equipment, including seat belt laws. Neither the testing page nor the 2021 manual states the number of questions or the passing score.

Tests are given only in English. An interpreter may assist on non-commercial written tests, applicants who struggle with reading can listen to the questions by phone, and after a failure the same test may be taken twice in one day.

Sources: Written test – Automated Testing System · Testing

How old do you have to be for a Wyoming learner's permit?

Fifteen for a regular learner’s permit, which is also issued to older beginners. At 14 or 15, a teen who lives or works more than 5 miles away from school or a job, or faces another extreme inconvenience, can apply for a restricted hardship permit approved by the Wyoming Highway Patrol.

Full driving privileges come at 17, or at 16½ after an approved driver education course and six months on an intermediate license.

Sources: Getting your license — Age requirements · Learner Permits

What are the rules for Wyoming learner and intermediate permits?

With a learner’s permit, the front passenger must be over 18 and licensed for the vehicle you are driving. The permit lasts a year, can be renewed, and must be held at least 10 days before the next step.

At 16, after 50 hours behind the wheel with 10 at night and a skills test, teens move to an intermediate permit. It allows one non-family passenger under 18, requires belts for everyone and limits driving to 5 a.m.–11 p.m. unless an exception form applies; breaking those rules means a 30-day suspension.
