Section 3-2 - Insurance Policies, Surety Bonds, Etc

(a) Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability Insurance: No contract motor carrier subject to the provisions of the Wyoming Commercial Vehicle Act shall engage in Wyoming intrastate commerce, and no letter of authority shall be issued to such motor carrier or remain in force until the motor carrier files, and the Department approves of, a policy of insurance, or surety bonds for the self insured, not less than the amounts prescribed in Section 3 of this chapter. The insurance policy or surety bonds shall be conditioned to pay, within the amount of such policy of insurance, or surety bonds for the self insured, any final judgment recovered against such motor carriers for bodily injuries to or the death of any person resulting from the negligent operation, maintenance, or use of motor vehicles subject to this act or for loss of or damage to property of others.

(b) Cargo Insurance: No contract motor carrier subject to the provisions of this act shall engage in Wyoming intrastate commerce, and no letter of authority shall be issued to such carrier or remain in force until the motor carrier files, and the Department approves of, a policy of insurance, or surety bonds for the self insured, in not less than the amounts prescribed in Section 3 of this chapter. The insurance policy or surety bonds shall be conditioned upon such carriers making compensation to shippers or consignees for all property belonging to shippers or consignees and coming into possession of such carrier in connection with the transportation of the property. This requirement, however, shall not apply to carriers transporting raw agricultural products (except livestock), nor to carriers transporting sand (except in pneumatic trailers), rock, dirt, gravel, or other commodities having no appreciable salvage value.
