Minimum Coverage Requirements in Wyoming
Wyoming mandates minimum liability coverage of 25/50/20: $25,000 per person for bodily injury, $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $20,000 for property damage. Drivers with DUIs, suspended licenses, uninsured accidents, or repeated violations typically must file SR-22 proof of insurance with the Wyoming Department of Transportation for 3 years. State law does not require uninsured motorist coverage, but approximately 14% of Wyoming drivers are uninsured—among the highest rates in the nation—making UM/UIM coverage critical for high-risk drivers vulnerable to rate spikes from another at-fault accident.

High-risk auto insurance in Wyoming costs significantly more than standard coverage due to DUI convictions, SR-22 filings, license suspensions, and at-fault accidents. Premiums vary by violation type, with DUI adding the highest surcharge—often 80–150% above standard rates. Drivers with SR-22 requirements should expect to pay $200–$400/mo for minimum liability coverage, with full coverage pushing premiums to $300–$500/mo or higher.
What Affects Your Rate
- Type of violation: DUI convictions increase premiums 80–150%, while speeding or at-fault accidents add 20–50%
- SR-22 filing requirement: adds $15–$35 filing cost plus high-risk classification surcharge
- Length of time since violation: rates begin to decline 3–5 years after violation date with clean driving
- Number of violations: multiple incidents within 3 years can push drivers into assigned risk pools with premiums exceeding $500/mo
- Vehicle type and value: full coverage on newer vehicles compounds high-risk surcharges significantly
- ZIP code and local uninsured rates: Wyoming's 14% uninsured driver rate elevates UM/UIM costs statewide

Liability Insurance
Covers injury and property damage you cause to others. Wyoming's 25/50/20 minimums are the legal floor, but high-risk drivers should consider 50/100/50 or higher to avoid personal asset exposure after another at-fault accident.
Full Coverage
Combines liability, comprehensive, and collision coverage. Required by lenders if you finance or lease a vehicle, and essential for high-risk drivers who cannot afford to replace a totaled vehicle out-of-pocket.
SR-22 Insurance
A certificate filed by your insurer proving you carry minimum liability coverage. Required for DUI, suspended license, uninsured accidents, and court orders in Wyoming.
Non-Standard Auto Insurance
Specialty coverage for drivers with DUI, suspensions, multiple violations, or SR-22 requirements. Non-standard carriers accept high-risk profiles that standard insurers decline.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Protects you when an at-fault driver lacks adequate insurance. Not required in Wyoming, but highly recommended given the state's 14% uninsured driver rate.
Collision Coverage
Pays to repair or replace your vehicle after an at-fault accident, regardless of fault. Required by lenders and essential for high-risk drivers who cannot afford out-of-pocket replacement.
