Wyoming Driver’s License Tests & Permit Practice Questions – 2026

Many drivers falsely assume that a trucker can see the road better because they sit twice as high as the driver of a car. The truck driver has a better view over the top of any cars ahead of him, but heavy vehicles also have sizeable blind spots that passenger vehicles do not have.

Slow down as you approach a roundabout and yield to pedestrians and traffic already in the roundabout.

Traffic in the roundabout must be given the right-of-way.

You must maintain liability insurance and carry proof of insurance whenever you drive.

Orange is used for construction and maintenance warning. The signs are usually diamond shaped. They notify drivers of unusual or potentially dangerous conditions near work areas.

Wyoming law prohibits reading or sending a text message from a cell phone or other device while operating a vehicle.

Watch for and obey slower speeds limits.

A stop sign means you must come to a complete stop. Give the right-of-way to pedestrians and to all cross traffic before moving again.

If your gas pedal sticks:

• Concentrate on steering (Keep your eyes on the road.)
• Try to free the pedal with your foot (If this does not work, push in the clutch or shift to neutral.)
• Use your brakes, stop at the nearest safe place and turn off the ignition.
• Find out what caused the problem and have it repaired.

At a steady red signal, you must stop behind the crosswalks or stop line. You can turn right unless there is a sign that prohibits the turn. You may turn right only after stopping and yielding to persons and other vehicles. You may also, after stopping and yielding, turn left from a one-way street onto a one-way street.

You must not park in front of a driveway or on a bridge. Parking on a hill is allowed if you are far enough from any travel lane to avoid interfering with traffic and visible to vehicles approaching from either direction.

If you are tired, have been drinking, or simply are not paying attention, you may not identify the danger at all. You won’t be able to predict what may happen until it is too late to decide what you should do. Finally, you may not be able to execute your decision soon enough because your reaction time may also be slower.

Most of the common drugs affect at least one of the major skills you need as a driver. Drivers need to know how drugs affect their ability to Identify, Predict, Decide and Execute.

Be cautious of new medicines. Do not drive until you are certain that they will not impair your driving.

• Provide more time and space ahead to react to emergencies (increase the following distance between you and the vehicle in front of you.)
• Move to the right lane of a multi-lane highway.
• Reduce your speed to encourage the driver behind to pass. Never slow down quickly to discourage a tailgater, all that does is increase your risk of being hit from behind.

This sign prohibits the driver from entering a restricted road section.

When you see this sign, do not drive onto that street or ramp from your direction.

The sign is square, not round.

Watch for ice on bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas, where it can remain, even after the sun comes out. These areas also tend to freeze before the rest of the road does.

If you ever find yourself with yellow to your right and white to your left, you are going the wrong way.

Remember, solid yellow lines are used on the left of the roadway edge of divided streets or roadways. When driving, a yellow line should always be to your left.

When you are driving on a highway with two or more lanes, upon approaching an authorized emergency vehicle parked with lights flashing, you must merge your vehicle into the lane farthest from the emergency vehicle. On roads with only one lane in each direction, you must reduce your speed to at least 20 mph below the speed limit when approaching a parked emergency vehicle.

While moving along the entrance ramp check over your shoulder for a gap in the traffic on the interstate. Adjust your speed to meet that gap and turn on the turn signal to indicate your need to enter the traffic lane. Do not try to merge into a gap that is too small. A small gap can quickly become even smaller. Do not forget that traffic on the interstate has the right of way.

Give aid to any injured persons and send for an ambulance. Do not move an injured person unless there is danger of another crash.

Remember to contact the police if there is an injury, death or property damage amounting to $1,000 or more. The law requires you to give the police information on the crash at the time of the crash.

Reduction of lanes. Right lane ends. Merge left.

Two lanes of traffic will soon become one lane of traffic. Right-lane traffic must yield when merging.

Never use parking lights while driving. They cannot be seen until after your vehicle is clearly visible. It is not legal to drive with only parking lights when headlights are required.

Get into the habit of signaling every time you change direction or lanes. Signal even when you do not see anyone else around. It is easy to miss someone who needs to know what you are doing.

Turn from the lane closest to the lane you want to enter. For a left turn from a one-way street, turn from the left-hand lane.

An instruction permit may be obtained at 15.

When gates are down, realize the road is closed. Stop and wait until the gates go up and the red lights stop flashing before proceeding. NEVER drive around gates.
