Minimum Coverage Requirements in Wyoming

Drivers with DUI convictions, multiple violations, at-fault uninsured accidents, or license suspensions must file SR-22 with the Wyoming Department of Transportation for 3 years. Completing your SR-22 period does not automatically lower your rates—violations remain on your driving record for 3 years from the date of conviction, and insurers typically review your history at each renewal.

Liability Insurance

Wyoming's 25/50/20 minimums are mandatory for all drivers and remain your floor after SR-22 ends. Post-SR-22 drivers should consider higher limits—50/100/50 or 100/300/100—because a single at-fault accident with minimum coverage can trigger another filing requirement if damages exceed your policy limits.

Full Coverage

Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Wyoming does not mandate uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage, but post-SR-22 drivers face elevated risk: if an uninsured driver hits you and you lack UM coverage, you pay out-of-pocket for injuries and vehicle damage.

Comprehensive Coverage

Comprehensive covers non-collision events—theft, hail, animal strikes, and vandalism—common in Wyoming's rural areas and severe weather zones. Dropping comprehensive to save money can backfire if a deer strike or hailstorm totals your car and you have no coverage.

SR-22 Insurance

SR-22 is not a separate insurance type—it is a certificate your insurer files with the Wyoming Department of Transportation proving you carry at least state-minimum liability. Once your 3-year SR-22 requirement ends, the filing stops automatically, but your violation remains on your driving record for 3 years from the conviction date. This means a DUI from 2022 will still affect your rates in 2025 even if your SR-22 ended in 2025, and you must actively shop to find carriers offering post-SR-22 discounts.

What Affects Your Rate

  • Time since SR-22 completion—rates drop most significantly 3 years after the underlying violation, not 3 years after filing ends
  • Violation type—DUI convictions carry longer rate impacts (5–7 years) than lapses or minor moving violations (3 years)
  • Credit-based insurance score—Wyoming allows insurers to use credit history in pricing, and post-SR-22 drivers with improved credit see faster rate recovery
