Checked against the Rules of the Road: State of Wyoming Driver License Manual (August 2021 edition) on October 25, 2026. How we check facts
Practice test
Pick an answer and check it. Every question comes with the reason behind the right answer and the sentence of an official document it rests on.
To pass here you need 8 of 10, since Wyoming’s test asks for 80%.
Question 1 of 10 · Guide and service signs
The answer is D: A county road.
The blue pentagon with yellow numbers marks a county road. The shape and color of a route marker tell you what kind of road you are on. The number is what a map will name. A state route marker is designed by each state, so it looks different from state to state.
“The County Route (M1-6) sign (see Figure 2D-4) shall consist of a pentagon shape with a yellow county name and route number and border on a blue background.”
Question 2 of 10 · Highways, merging and exits
The answer is B: Move over a lane or adjust your speed.
The driver on the ramp has to yield to you, but make room anyway. Move over a lane if it is clear, or ease off a little so a gap opens. Do not brake hard. The driver behind you is doing highway speed and does not expect it.
“Make space for vehicles entering a multiple-lane or limited access roadway by moving over a lane or adjusting your speed.”
Question 3 of 10 · Snow and ice
The answer is C: every window, light and the roof
Clear every window, every light and the mirrors, then the roof and the hood. Snow on the glass hides what is around you, and a light under snow is a signal nobody sees. Snow left on the roof flies off once you are moving and lands on the car behind you.
“Remove snow and ice from your vehicle’s hood, windows and lights before driving.”
Question 4 of 10 · Regulatory signs
The answer is C: A stop sign.
Only the stop sign is cut with eight sides, so the outline names it when the face cannot. That is why you can read one from behind, in fog or under snow. A yield sign is a triangle on its point, and a speed limit sign is a plain rectangle.
“Shapes that are exclusive to a particular sign (such as an octagon for STOP, a pennant for NO PASSING ZONE, or a circle for Railroad Advance) should not be obscured”
Question 5 of 10 · Railroad crossings
The answer is C: stop and wait until they go out.
Flashing red lights mean a train is coming or still near the crossing. Stop before the tracks and stay there until the lights stop, even if you see no train. A crossing can have lights without a gate, so the lights may be all that holds you back. The crossing is not clear until they stop.
“Flashing-Light Signals—a warning device consisting of two red signal indications arranged horizontally that are activated to flash alternately when rail traffic is approaching or present at a grade crossing.”
Question 6 of 10 · Curves and hills
The answer is B: Shift to a lower gear.
Use a lower gear, so the engine helps hold the car back and you use the brakes less. Brakes held down the whole way get very hot and stop working well. Neutral is worse, since then nothing but the brakes slows you, and in many states it is against the law. Most automatics have a low range marked L, 2 or 1.
“A USE LOW GEAR (W7-2P) or TRUCKS USE LOWER GEAR (W7-2bP) supplemental plaque (see Figure 2C-5) may be used to indicate a situation where downshifting as well as braking might be advisable.”
Question 7 of 10 · Pavement markings
The answer is C: People riding bicycles.
A solid white line with a bicycle symbol marks a bike lane. It belongs to riders, so do not drive or park in it. Near a corner the line usually breaks. That is where you cross it to turn right, after checking for a rider.
“Pavement markings designate that portion of the roadway for preferential use by bicyclists. Markings inform all road users of the restricted nature of the bicycle lane.”
Question 8 of 10 · Seat belts, airbags and car seats
The answer is A: Upright, about 10 inches from the wheel.
Sit up with your back against the seat and about 10 inches between your chest and the steering wheel. That is the room the air bag needs to open without hitting your face. Do not recline. Leaning back puts the belt in the wrong place on your body and cuts your view.
“There should be 10 inches between your chest and the steering wheel. Do not move the seat so far forward that you cannot easily steer and do not recline the seat.”
Question 9 of 10 · Emergencies and crashes
The answer is A: Yes, however small the damage is.
You have to stop at every crash you are in, however small the damage looks. Leaving the scene is a crime, even over a scratch. Once stopped, check that nobody is hurt and call the police if anyone is. If the cars can be driven, move them out of traffic so nobody else crashes into them.
“If you are in a crash, you must stop. The level of damage does not matter. You must stop. It is a traffic violation to leave the scene of an incident, like a traffic crash that involves property damage. It is a criminal violation to leave the scene of an incident that involves a fatality or personal injury.”
Question 10 of 10 · Parking and stopping
The answer is A: Toward the curb.
Facing downhill, turn the front wheels toward the curb. If the brakes let go, the car rolls a few inches and the front tire catches the curb. It stops there instead of rolling into the street. Facing uphill the wheels go the other way, so look at the slope before you turn them.
“Headed downhill: Turn your front wheels into the curb or right toward the side of the road.”

20% of them, since you need 80%.
On DMV Champ’s 25-question simulated test, you can miss 5.
The number of questions isn’t confirmed by an official source.
You need a score of at least 80% to pass.
“A minimum grade of 80 percent shall be required to pass the knowledge test.”
DMV Champ uses the same format for Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota and South Dakota.
The youngest you can be is 15.
“An instruction permit may be obtained at 15.”
If you fail, you can take the same written test at most twice in 1 day.
“If you fail the written test, you may only take the same written test twice in one day.”
If you miss 13 or more questions, you must wait 3 days before you test again.
“Applicants who miss 13 or more questions must wait three days to be retested.”
Licenses are issued by WYDOT’s Driver Services Program.
“Wyoming licenses are issued by the Driver Services Program of the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT).”
The manual calls it the written test.
“A written test covering the rules of the road and safe driving practices may be required. Questions are taken from the information in this manual.”
The test is given only in English, but you can use an interpreter if you can’t speak or write English.
“All tests are given in English only, so if a person cannot speak or write the English language, an interpreter may be used.”
The automated test can read the questions to you through a phone, and you can pick this when you set up the test at the testing station.
“Wyoming's automated testing system allows for applicants who have difficulty reading to hear the questions orally through a phone system. If you prefer to hear the questions, as well as read them, you can choose that option when you are setting up the test at the testing station.”
You can ask for an oral test, but you must ask before you start.
“Oral tests are available, but the applicant must request one prior to taking the test.”
Test simulator
DMV Champ teaches every question with its explanation, then checks you with 5 simulated tests of 25 questions, graded against the 20-correct passing score. 35 topics in Wyoming: the 34 every state tests, plus winter driving, because the Wyoming handbook teaches it.
