Reinstating a Driver's License in Wyoming

You may be eligible for reinstatement once your suspension period has ended, no other suspendable offenses are pending, any required SR-22 has been filed by your insurer and received by WYDOT, and the reinstatement fee is paid. The fee is $50, or $5 for child support suspensions (both may apply if they overlap). Pay online through oneWYO, in person at a driver exam office, or by mail (personal check, money order or certified funds with your full name and driver license number and/or date of birth) to WYDOT-Driver Services, 5300 Bishop Blvd., Cheyenne, WY 82009-3340.

Grounds include four or more moving violations in 12 months (90 days), DWUI and administrative per se (90 days for a first offense), reckless driving (90 days for a first offense in five years), failing to resolve a traffic citation (suspension until the court confirms the citation is satisfied), a court conviction for no liability insurance (until an SR-22 is filed), an uninsured crash, and nonpayment of child support. Reinstatement requires completing all withdrawal actions and paying a reinstatement fee ($50 for most suspensions; $5 for child support), plus an SR-22 for some offenses. Revocations (for example, a third DWUI or third reckless driving) require a driver investigation to be relicensed.

A probationary driver license (limited driving privileges) may be requested during many suspensions, including moving-violation suspensions and a first DWUI with BAC under 0.15, by submitting a record review request ($15) and, if approved, paperwork with a $25 fee. Only one is allowed in five years, an SR-22 must be on file if required, and it is not available for a second or later DWUI, revocations, or insurance-related suspensions. During eligible DWUI suspensions, driving is allowed with an ignition interlock restricted license.
