The average cost of full coverage car insurance in Wyoming is $1,398 a year, slightly lower than the national average in the U.S.
But Wyoming drivers can still find ways to save money on car insurance. Policygenius can show you quotes from top companies so you can choose the coverage that’s right for you at a price that’s right for your budget.
Cheapest car insurance companies in Wyoming
Your ZIP code, driving history, and age are some of the factors that go into what you’ll be charged for car insurance. Every insurance company will look at the same data when setting your rates, but since each company has its own system, two companies can look at the same driver and offer very different prices for coverage.
Cheapest car insurance companies by age in Wyoming
Drivers under 25 are more expensive to insure, because younger drivers are statistically more likely to be involved in accidents, speed, and text while driving.
After age 25, however, young drivers are no longer part of that risky age group and, as long as they’ve avoided accidents and driving violations, should see a drop in premiums.
Choosing the right car insurance company in Wyoming
Every driver has unique factors that go into determining their rate and will need to compare policies to find the right coverage for them at the right price.
Young drivers, for example, will need to shop around for a policy that doesn’t charge them too much extra because of their age, while drivers who value premium service should check claims satisfaction ratings and available perks. Policygenius can help you easily compare options from top companies and find a policy that meets your needs.
Car insurance rates for drivers with driving violations in Wyoming
Any accidents or violations in your driving history will negatively impact your car insurance rates. The more serious the violation, the longer it will stay on your record and the more you’ll pay for coverage.
However, after several years, most violations will “fall off” the record that’s visible to insurance companies. As long as you keep your driving record clean in the years following an accident or violation, your rates should go back down eventually.
Cheapest car insurance for drivers with bad credit in Wyoming
Drivers with bad credit are considered a higher risk to insure and will typically pay more for car insurance. However, your credit score is not the only factor that car insurance companies consider — age, driving history, and ZIP code all have a greater impact.

Buying car insurance in Wyoming
The Wyoming minimum liability requirements are $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident in body liability coverage and $20,000 in property damage liability coverage. Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage is optional in Wyoming.
Wyoming is an at-fault state. That means that after an accident, the driver found at-fault for the accident will be legally and financially responsible for any damage or injuries. Having higher levels of liability coverage is a smart way to make sure you are protected in the event of an at-fault accident. In addition, adding comprehensive and collision coverage are important if you cannot afford to repair or replace your vehicle out-of-pocket after an accident.
How to get cheap car insurance in Wyoming
Most car insurance companies offer a range of discounts that can help drivers save money. Some of the most common include:
Bundling discount
Safe driver discount
Good student discount
Accident free discount
Group/Employer/Professional discount
Low mileage discount
Military discount
If you are not eligible for any discounts, you can still find the cheapest rates by comparing different insurers and levels of coverage.

Bodily injury liability: 50/100
Property damage liability: $50,000

Rates for overall average rate, rates by ZIP code, and cheapest companies determined using averages for single drivers ages 30, 35, and 45. Our sample vehicle was a 2017 Toyota Camry LE driven 10,000 miles/year.
Rates for driving violations and “Poor” credit determined using average rates for a single male 30-year-old driver with a credit score under 578.
