Minimum Coverage Requirements in Wyoming

Wyoming operates as a tort state, meaning the at-fault driver is financially responsible for damages in an accident. All drivers must carry proof of insurance and present it during traffic stops or after accidents. The Wyoming Department of Insurance enforces these requirements, and driving without proof results in license suspension until proof is filed.

Bodily Injury Liability

Covers medical expenses, lost wages, and legal costs when you injure someone in an at-fault accident. Wyoming's rural highways and long travel distances mean accidents often involve higher speeds and more severe injuries than in urban states.

Property Damage Liability

Pays for damage you cause to another person's vehicle, fence, building, or other property. If you cause damage beyond your limit, you're personally responsible for the difference.

Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Protects you when hit by a driver with no insurance or insufficient coverage. Wyoming law requires insurers to offer this coverage, but you can decline it by signing a waiver.
