Wyoming
RestrictedWY
Kei trucks are street-legal with restrictions in Wyoming as of September 2026.
Wyoming registers kei trucks as “multipurpose vehicles”. They may be used on state and local roads but not on interstate highways. Where the vehicle cannot reach the maximum speed allowed on a road, it must be driven at the extreme right-hand edge and carry a slow-moving vehicle emblem or a reflectorised flag. There is no inspection requirement, which makes Wyoming one of the more permissive states in practice — but the interstate exclusion is absolute.
