Wyoming Permit Test Practice 2026
Permit testing in Wyoming starts with a written exam - signs, signals, right of way, plus Wyoming-specific items from the handbook. Below: 6 sample questions in the real format and a Wyoming cheat sheet. DMV Ready has the rest.
What’s on the Wyoming permit test?
The Wyoming written exam is 25 questions long, all multiple choice. Pass mark is 80% - about 20 right. Material is straight from the Wyoming driver handbook: signs, signaling, right of way, sharing the road, plus the Wyoming-specific rules examiners like to ask about. Wyoming’s DOT uses 25 questions; expect rural-highway, animal-encounter, and winter-driving scenarios.
It’s mostly factual. You’ll see questions about sign meanings, posted speed limits, signaling distances, and right-of-way order. A smaller block tests practical judgment in everyday driving scenarios.
Worth flagging: Wyoming has handbook rules that other states don’t share. If your prep app is showing you a one-size-fits-all 25-question template, it’s not preparing you for the Wyoming test.

Question 1: During what hours may a Wyoming intermediate license holder NOT drive unless they have a valid exception form?
- Between midnight and 6 a.m.
- Between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.
- Between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.
Correct answer: Between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.
Why: Holders of intermediate licenses may not drive between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. unless the holder meets an exception criteria and presents a completed exception form.
💡 Memory tip: 11 p.m. to 5 a.m.: don’t drive unless you’ve got the form.
Question 2: What is the minimum BAC level at the time of arrest that triggers an ignition interlock requirement for a first-time DWUI offender in Wyoming?
- 0.08%
- 0.15%
- 0.20%
Correct answer: 0.15%
Why: In Wyoming, for a first offense, if your BAC at the time of arrest was 0.15% or greater, you will be required to hold an ignition interlock restricted driver license for 6 months before being eligible for any other type of license. This is significantly higher than the standard legal limit of 0.08%.
💡 Memory tip: 0.15% = ignition interlock; 0.08% is just legal limit.
Question 3: In Wyoming, child restraints are required for which passengers?
- Children meeting specific age, weight, or height requirements
- Only infants under 6 months old
- All passengers under 21 years old
Correct answer: Children meeting specific age, weight, or height requirements
Why: According to the Child Restraints section of the Wyoming Driver’s Manual, Wyoming law requires appropriate child restraint systems for children based on specific age, weight, and height requirements to ensure their safety while riding in vehicles.
💡 Memory tip: A-W-H rule: Age, Weight, Height decide child restraints. Not infants only.
Question 4: What is the suspension period in Wyoming for transporting liquor to a minor while operating or occupying a motor vehicle?
- One year
- Six months
- Two years
Correct answer: One year
Why: According to the Wyoming Driver’s Manual, transporting liquor with the intent of furnishing any alcoholic liquid or malt beverage to any person under 21 while operating or occupying a motor vehicle results in a one-year suspension.
💡 Memory tip: Liquor to a minor in a car? One year suspension.
Question 5: Under Wyoming’s Implied Consent law, when do drivers give consent to chemical testing for BAC?
- Whenever driving on a public street or highway
- Only after being convicted of DWUI
- Only when they have consumed alcohol
Correct answer: Whenever driving on a public street or highway
Why: According to the WY driver’s manual, under the Implied Consent law, drivers are deemed to have given their consent to chemical tests whenever driving on a public street or highway. This consent is automatic when you operate a vehicle on public roads.
💡 Memory tip: Drive public roads or highways? That’s automatic consent to a BAC test.
Question 6: At what BAC level is a person considered to be high and impaired mentally and physically in Wyoming?
- 0.05 percent
- 0.02 percent
- 0.08 percent
Correct answer: 0.08 percent
Why: A BAC of 0.08 percent is considered to be high, and people at this level are impaired mentally and physically whether or not they show it. In contrast, a BAC of 0.02 percent is considered low and most persons are not significantly affected at this level.
💡 Memory tip: 0.08 = legally impaired; think of it as the tipping point.
