Wyoming requires all drivers to carry minimum liability insurance of 25/50/20 (Bodily Injury per person / Bodily Injury per accident / Property Damage):
Wyoming is a tort state with a very low population density — the least populous state in the country — and correspondingly low accident frequency that keeps insurance rates competitive and affordable. The state's required minimums of 25/50/20 are standard for the region, and Wyoming's overall claims environment is favorable for insurers. The competitive market among carriers provides good options for drivers willing to compare quotes, and Wyoming consistently ranks among the more affordable states for auto insurance.
Wyoming's primary vehicle risks are wind — the state regularly experiences high winds that can cause vehicle accidents and damage, particularly on I-80 through the southern tier of the state — and hail during spring and summer storm systems. Wildlife collisions are common given the state's large populations of deer, pronghorn, and elk. The remote character of Wyoming's roads means that accidents in rural areas can occur far from medical services, and vehicle breakdowns in winter can become life-threatening situations. Comprehensive coverage is valuable for Wyoming drivers given the combination of wind, hail, and wildlife collision risks.
