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

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.

To stop with conventional brakes, apply the brakes carefully without locking them. If the brakes lock, the vehicle will start to skid. Quickly let up on the brake pedal again. Pumping those brakes once every second is a good rule of thumb.

Regardless of who is legally at fault in car-cycle crashes, the motorcyclist usually is the loser.

Motorcycles are NOT easily identified in traffic.

Two motorcycles may be driven abreast in the same lane and must be by consent of both motorcycle drivers.

When you wish to leave the Interstate, you should plan ahead. Look for signs telling you about your exit and the lane you must use. Signal and move into the proper lane a mile or more before the exit. Never slow on the Interstate – slow after turning into the deceleration lane. Once off the interstate, be aware of two-way traffic and check your speed.

Slow down, stay patient, maintain a safe following distance, and stay alert while driving through work zones. Extra care should be maintained through construction work zones even though there is no apparent work activity in the immediate vicinity.

The pentagon (five-sided) shape warns you of school zones and marks school crossings.

If a collision seems inevitable, do not swerve suddenly to avoid the animal. Your risk of personal injury may be greater if you do. Brake as quickly as you safely can, but keep your vehicle under control and on the road.

Maintain a safe following distance at all times. If another driver needs to suddenly change lanes, slow down and let them merge.

Be sure to pass with sufficient speed to avoid loitering in the truck driver’s blind spot (No-Zone) and simply taking too long to pass. The passenger vehicle’s position while passing makes it impossible for the truck driver to take evasive action if an obstacle appears in the road ahead.

This sign warns of conditions that can cause you to lose control of your car. The road surface of a bridge may be dangerous in winter because it freezes first and may remain icy after the rest of the roadway is clear. In wet or cold weather, drive slowly. Do not speed up or brake hard.

As you approach any railroad crossing, slow down, look, listen, and be prepared to stop. Do not assume that a train is not coming even if you have never seen one at that crossing before. That is one of the leading causes of fatalities at railroad crossings.

If you park facing uphill where there is a curb, you should set the parking brake and turn the wheels away from the curb. In any other situation, turn the wheels towards the curb or edge of the road.

Turn off the engine, take the keys and lock the car.

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.

You get on the Interstate by using an entrance ramp, but be alert for Do Not Enter and Wrong Way signs that might indicate that you are about to begin going the wrong way on an exit ramp instead. The Wrong Way sign supplements the Do Not Enter sign. It is placed along the exit ramp or the one-way roadway farther from the crossroad. It tells you that you have already entered a one-way road and are driving in the wrong direction.

If you find yourself going the wrong way on a ramp, you should pull onto the shoulder, stop, and only turn around when there is no oncoming traffic.

A green arrow means that you may turn in the direction shown by the arrow without stopping if the way is clear. This is known as a protected turn. You must yield the right of way to persons and other traffic within the intersection.

Remember, the green arrow does not mean that ALL other traffic is stopped by a red light. Traffic may turn from the opposing direction and vehicles going straight in your direction may also have a green light.

When you back up, do not depend upon your mirrors. Turn your head and body so that you can see where you are backing.

Drive slowly and in full control in order to avoid skidding. Skids are usually caused by drivers traveling too fast for the conditions. By judging weather and road conditions and knowing where skids are likely to occur, such as on curves or bridges, most skids can be avoided.

If you are placed under arrest for driving while under the influence, a chemical test or tests to determine your BAC may result. Under the Implied Consent law, drivers are deemed to have given their consent to such tests whenever driving on a public street or highway.

If you refuse to take the required test or tests, your driver’s license and driving privileges will be suspended for six to 18 months, and you may be subject to criminal penalties.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and poisonous gas. Signs of carbon monoxide poisoning are weariness, yawning, dizziness, nausea, headache, and ringing in the ears. If you feel any of these symptoms, stop your engine and open the windows to get fresh air.

Have the exhaust system checked regularly to be sure it does not leak. Avoid parking for long periods of time with the engine running. Do not start your vehicle, or warm up the engine, in a closed garage.

At 16 an applicant may obtain limited driving privileges by acquiring an intermediate license.

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.

Posted speed limits do not tell you at what speed to drive. It is imperative that you drive according to road conditions. You must also adjust your speed for traffic conditions and how well you can see ahead.

Wyoming statutes say: No person shall drive a vehicle on a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent under the conditions and having regard to the actual and potential hazards then existing. This is known as the basic speed law.

Solid yellow lines indicate no passing or lane changing – unless making a left turn into or from an alley, private road, or driveway.

Never drive so fast that you cannot stop within the distance you can see ahead with your headlights. Your lights will only let you see clearly about 250 feet. If you then drive faster than 55 mph on a dark road, you are really driving blind because you won’t be able to stop within the 250 feet ahead of you that is lit well enough to see.

Do not move an injured person unless there is danger of another crash. Stop your vehicle at or near the crash scene, and stay there until the police have arrived and questioned everyone involved.
