Required stops — Wyoming Permit Test

Required stops on the Wyoming permit test — 5 rules, each with the reason behind it and a question on it while it is fresh.

The rules

At stop signs, red traffic lights and flashing red lights, you must stop before the crosswalk.

Stopping past the line puts your car where people on foot are crossing.

Before the crosswalk at all stop signs, red traffic lights and flashing red lights;

Wyoming Rules of the Road Driver License Manual, p.50

You must stop when entering a street from a driveway, alley, building or parking lot, and when entering a business district from a side road.

When entering a street from a driveway, alley, building, or parking lot (W.S. 31-5-506) and when entering a business district from a side road;

Wyoming Rules of the Road Driver License Manual, p.50

You must stop when a police officer directs you to; an officer's directions outweigh traffic lights or signs.

An officer can see a crash or danger ahead that the signal cannot, and is there to take over from it.

When directed to do so by a police officer. A police officer’s directions outweigh traffic lights or signs;

Wyoming Rules of the Road Driver License Manual, p.50

You must stop when a flag person signals you to at or near construction sites.

On the test

There is a crosswalk at a stop sign. Where must you stop?

Before the crosswalk. Stopping past the line puts your car where people on foot are crossing. Wyoming Rules of the Road Driver License Manual, p.50: “Before the crosswalk at all stop signs, red traffic lights and flashing red lights;”

How this works

Most practice tests hand you a bank of questions and leave the manual somewhere else. This one puts them together.

You read one law and the reason behind it, then answer a question on that law while it is still fresh. Get it right and you move on; get it wrong and you have found the gap while it is cheap to fix, not on the morning of the exam.

Learning one rule at a time, and proving it immediately, is what turns a manual you skimmed into something you actually know — and it makes studying feel like getting somewhere rather than like waiting to find out.
