How do I apply for a WY drivers license if I am younger than 18? Wyoming
This varies depending on your age.
But, if you're a teen who’s 17, you can pretty much apply for your Wyoming drivers license in the same manner as if you were 18. You don't have to first hold an intermediate license or drivers permit (sometimes called a learners permit) or participate in a driver training or drivers ed class. (Keep in mind, though, that completing an approved drivers education course may allow you to skip the driving test.)
Here are the basics for what you need to do.
