Types of WY Disability Permits
If you have a disability, you may be eligible for disability placard or license plate from the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT).
The state offers several options for handicapped parking placards and plates:
- Temporary disability placards.
- Permanent disability placards.
- Permanent disability license plates.
- You must have a vehicle registered in your name.
