The Zebra’s Dynamic Insurance Rating Tool data methodology

The Zebra’s Dynamic Insurance Rating Tool for home and auto insurance rates utilizes the latest ZIP code-level rate filings from across the U.S., sourced from Quadrant Information Services and S&P Global. These filings, typically updated annually or biennially by insurers, are verified through Quadrant’s QA process and then integrated into The Zebra’s estimator.

The displayed rates are based on a dynamic home and auto profile designed to reflect the content of the page. This profile is tailored to match specific factors such as age, location, and coverage level, which are adjusted based on the page content to show how these variables can impact premiums.

For Wyomingites, is liability insurance enough?

If you carry only the state minimum required insurance in Wyoming (25/50/20), you have enough to drive legally, but these amounts often aren't enough to cover damages from an accident.For stronger financial protection, we recommend increasing these limits to 50/100/50. If your budget allows, opting for full coverage provides even greater peace of mind by offering the most comprehensive protection in case of an accident.

Car insurance price trends in Wyoming

Wyoming car insurance rates have seen steady but small increases each year since 2019. The most dramatic change occurred in 2018 when average rates dropped over $400— this was likely due to new legislation regarding vehicles and insurance passing in the previous year.[5] Wyoming car insurance premiums have remained within a $150 range since 2019. The average rates in this state may stay consistent because Wyoming is the least populated state with the fewest number of licensed drivers in the country.

Year Avg. Annual Premium — Wyoming Yearly Change — Wyoming
2024 $1,590 $39

Cheap auto insurance for teens and young drivers in Wyoming

In Wyoming, teen drivers are hit especially hard, with annual rates averaging $5,351 — $1,178 less the national teen average but more than three times the rate paid by the typical Wyoming driver.

Wyoming auto insurance quotes after an accident or ticket

Perhaps the biggest influence on your car insurance rates is your driving history. A record with multiple accidents signals to insurers that you’re more likely to file claims, leading them to charge higher premiums.

Zebra tip: Don't forget about claims satisfaction

Though you might hope to avoid ever needing your insurance, a smooth claims process is crucial if the time comes. Our 2024 Customer Satisfaction Survey evaluated real claims experiences, and USAA and AAA emerged as the top performers, making them compelling options for Wyoming residents.[4]

In Wyoming, a bad driving record will cause your rates to skyrocket. If you receive a ticket or citation, your auto insurance premiums will probably rise. By how much depends on the violation, your insurer's pricing standards, and differing local insurance regulations and risks. That's why tickets may have a different impact on insurance in your state compared to the national average.

The Zebra's guide to Wyoming car insurance laws for high-risk drivers

Certain violations, like a DUI or driving without insurance, can result in more complex insurance consequences. Below, you'll find detailed guides on Wyoming car insurance laws and regulations.

Discover more about Wyoming car insurance laws in our comprehensive guide.

Wyoming DUI laws

In Wyoming, a DUI offense can increase your annual car insurance premium by an average of $1,100. Finding affordable auto insurance in the wake of a DUI violation isn’t simple. In fact, a DUI often brings about a bigger premium increase than any single road violation — more than an at-fault accident, racing, or reckless driving.

 
Low-cost car insurance after a DUI in Wyoming

If you're convicted of a DUI or DWI violation in Wyoming, it’s key to mull over each of your insurance choices carefully. Auto insurance premiums following a DUI can vary substantially by insurer. For example, the least expensive car insurance company with a DUI in Wyoming, State Farm, advertises annual rates 35% less than the statewide average insurance rate with a DUI. The second-cheapest insurer for auto insurance after a DUI in Wyoming is American National, while the priciest firm is Metlife, with prices 71% above average.

There is no car insurer in particular that offers cheap DUI auto insurance. The recommended way to save in the wake of a DUI citation is to shop around.

Wyoming SR-22 insurance

An SR-22 is a routine legal requirement triggered by a violation such as a DUI conviction, a ticket for driving without insurance, an at-fault collision, driving with a suspended license, or accumulating too many points on your license. It is not a type of insurance policy, but a form issued by your insurance company with the state of Wyoming to ensure that you remain insured.

Finding cheap auto insurance with an SR-22 in Wyoming might require some research, but it could pay off in the end.

 

How to acquire an SR-22 in Wyoming

For currently insured drivers

If you already have auto insurance, getting an SR-22 certificate is straightforward. Contact your car insurance company ask the company to file an SR-22 request for you. If your insurer isn’t willing to file a request, you'll need to look for a new insurer.

 

For uninsured drivers

When filing for a new policy, you might be saddled with an up-front fee to have your prospective insurer file an SR-22 request for you and to cover your high-risk driving profile. Needing an SR-22 might disqualify you from purchasing insurance from some companies, while others would be happy to sell you a policy.

 

For drivers without a vehicle

Not owning a vehicle makes it more difficult to obtain an SR-22, as you will need to furnish proof of insurance to receive the certificate. In this scenario, purchase a non-owners car insurance policy before filing an SR-22 request. Non-owners auto insurance is typically less expensive than traditional coverage since it doesn't protect against material damage to your vehicle.
