Wyoming Driver’s License Tests & Permit Practice Questions – 2024

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.

If you can see an accident ahead, warn the drivers behind you by turning on your emergency flashers or tapping your brake pedal quickly three or four times. You can also use the hand signal when slowing. Never stop on the road, unless necessary for safety or to obey a law.

Be in the proper lane well before the turn. Signal the direction you plan to turn. Slow and check for persons and vehicles in your turning path.

Dismissal of the DWUI in court will not affect the Administrative Per Se suspension. If you are convicted of the DWUI in court, the time served for the Administrative Per Se suspension will be credited toward the DWUI suspension.

Time is the only significant factor in reducing bac levels. Approximately 90 percent of the alcohol in your body is eliminated by the liver. It is eliminated at a constant rate and this rate is about the same for all persons, about one drink per hour. It cannot be eliminated any faster. Showering, drinking coffee or exercising in an effort to sober up are useless. Only time can do the job.

How brakes can best be used depends on whether a vehicle has anti-lock brakes (ABS) or conventional brakes. Knowing how to correctly apply your brakes in an emergency situation may save your life.

If a driver of another vehicle is coming at you in your lane:

• Slow down and try to warn him by flashing your headlights.
• If he keeps coming, pull as far right as possible.
• If he still keeps coming, and there could be a collision, steer off the road to the right.

If an oncoming or stopped vehicle should suddenly appear in your lane of travel and there is immediate danger of a collision, steer off the road to the right.

If more than one vehicle arrives at the same time, the vehicle on the right goes first. It is important to remember to never insist on the right of way at the risk of a crash.

If you enter an intersection while violating the speed law, you forfeit any right of way you might have had.

The Flagger ahead sign warns drivers that there is a flagger ahead, and to be especially alert in the work zone.

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

Be especially careful to look for bicyclists when you are preparing to enter a roadway or to make a turn. Intersections are particularly dangerous for both cars and bikes. You must glance over your shoulder to be sure no one is in the blind spot. Always make a visual check for the bicyclist when changing lanes. Bicycles are small and may be hidden in your blind spot. Do not pass a cyclist only to turn directly in front of him. When in doubt, wait.

Darkness requires greater alertness. Reduced visibility, glare from oncoming headlights, animals crossing the road, and eye strain all combine to make night driving hazardous.

Never drive so fast that you cannot stop within the distance you can see ahead with your headlights.

The entrance ramp of an interstate usually takes you to an acceleration lane. Its purpose is to let you match your speed to that of Interstate traffic. As you merge, make sure you are driving about the same speed as other traffic.

Parking is not allowed where the curb is painted yellow near intersections or driveways.

Yellow lines mark the center of a road used for traffic going in opposite directions.

Divided highway ends: the divided highway on which you are traveling ends ahead. You will then be on an undivided roadway with two-way traffic. Keep to the right.

An SR-22 is an insurance certificate that your insurance company files with the department. Proof of financial responsibility must be maintained for three years from the date it is required.

Towing boats or trailers adds length and weight to your vehicle and therefore requires more following distance.

A steady green light means go. You may enter the intersection when the way is clear. You MUST yield the right of way to other vehicles and persons already in the intersection.

Remember, do not block an intersection.

A child who has not reached his ninth birthday must be properly secured in a child safety restraint system in a seat of the vehicle other than the front seat (except if the vehicle is only equipped with one (1) row of seats, or if all safety belts in the rows of seats behind the front seat are in use by other child passengers in the vehicle).

When you hear the siren or see the flashing lights of a fire truck, police car or ambulance approaching you from behind, you must pull as close as possible to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway and stop. Remain stopped until the emergency vehicle has passed. Keep your foot on the brake so the emergency driver knows you are stopped. Watch for other emergency vehicles to pass you before you begin moving.

Do not stop in an intersection or a roundabout.

When approaching a construction zone, if you pass a heavy vehicle at a high speed and then cut back in front of the truck so you won’t be trapped behind it, the truck driver is forced to use emergency braking. If there is not enough braking distance between the truck and your passenger vehicle, the truck will rear end your vehicle, causing a serious or fatal crash.

You must stop for flashing red lights or crossing gates at a railroad crossing or when signaled by a flag person at or near railroad crossings. You must also stop if there is a stop sign or if a train is approaching.

Always expect a train at every highway-rail intersection. NEVER race a train to a highway-rail intersection. To do so is foolish. If you lose, you and your passengers may never have another chance.

When licensees change their addresses, they must notify the department in writing within 10 days of the change. Forms for address changes are available at all exam locations and on the WYDOT website.

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.
