What speed is considered reckless driving in Wyoming?

I recently moved to Wyoming and I love it so far. The one thing that’s stuck out to me is how few people live here. Because I rarely see people on the road, I tend to speed quite often. Is there a speed that’s considered reckless driving in Wyoming?

While
Wyoming
is the least populated state in the country, don’t take that as an invitation to speed. While no set speed is considered reckless driving in Wyoming, officers can still issue a reckless driving charge for excessive speeding.
In Wyoming, reckless driving is a misdemeanor that stays on your permanent record. It also carries penalties including:
  • Fines of up to $750
  • Surcharge to the state of between $150 and $350
  • Imprisonment of up to six months
While Wyoming doesn’t use a point system for driver’s licenses, two offenses within one year may lead to a suspension of your license.
