Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires identity verification before you start. Takes a few minutes up front and keeps your certificate valid when you submit it to the Montgomery County BMV or Clerk of Courts.

Work Through the Course

Complete text and image-based interactive lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and Ohio traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. State rules require a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours, and that break time does not count toward your total.

Pass the Final and Download Your Certificate

The state-provided 40-question final exam requires a 75% to pass. You have two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it and BMV Form 5789 generates instantly as a PDF. The course must be completed within 30 days of enrollment, per current Ohio BMV requirements. Total seat time is 8 hours minimum.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or fulfilling a court order, nothing moves forward until the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course certificate lands at the BMV or courthouse. For drivers banking the 2-point credit, one more ticket without that cushion can push the record past 12 and trigger a suspension. The state also gives you a hard 30-day window from enrollment - miss it and you pay a reinstatement fee and start over from scratch.

Questions Brookville Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

Who actually has to take the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course, and what is the difference between a court order and the 2-point credit?

Five situations qualify under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Drivers with 2 to 11 points can take the course voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them over 12. Drivers who hit 12 points within two years face a license suspension and must complete the course before reinstatement. Courts can also order the course as a condition of a case, and in that situation no 2-point credit applies - the certificate goes to the court, not the BMV point system. Drivers 19 or older dealing with a juvenile suspension, and drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension, also qualify. If you are not sure which category fits your situation, the Montgomery County Clerk of Courts or the Dayton BMV office on Needmore Road can confirm before you enroll.

What does the 2-point credit actually do for my driving record?

The 2-point credit does not remove existing points or erase violations from your Ohio record. Only a court order can remove points under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. What the credit does is subtract two points from your current total, creating a cushion so the next ticket does not immediately push you into suspension territory. The credit is valid for three years from the date the BMV applies it, and you can use it once every three years with a lifetime maximum of five times. After you pass the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course, you submit BMV Form 5789 to the Ohio BMV - the Brookville Deputy Registrar on Arlington Road can accept it or direct you to the correct submission process. The BMV then applies the credit to your record per current ODPS guidelines.

What happens if I do not finish the course within 30 days of enrolling?

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets a hard 30-day completion window from the date you enroll. Miss that deadline and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and restart the entire course from the beginning - your previous progress does not carry over. For drivers already dealing with a suspended license, that means more time off the road. For drivers trying to bank the 2-point credit before a hearing or a ticket posts to their record, it means the window closes. The practical move is to start the first lesson the same day you enroll and treat the 30-day clock as a real deadline. If you are in Brookville and your license is already suspended, every day the course sits unfinished is another day you cannot legally drive on US-40 or anywhere else.

How fast do I get my certificate after passing the final exam, and where do I send it?

BMV Form 5789 generates as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam - there is no waiting period, no mailing delay, and no processing queue. You download it immediately and decide where it goes based on why you took the course. Drivers completing the course for the 2-point credit submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV; the Brookville Deputy Registrar on Arlington Road can assist with that submission, or you can mail it directly to the BMV per current Ohio BMV requirements. Drivers who were court-ordered submit the certificate to the court that issued the order - for most Brookville residents that means the Montgomery County Clerk of Courts, located in downtown Dayton roughly 18 miles east on I-70. Keep a digital copy for your own records regardless of where you send the original.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions and requires a 75% to pass. Under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, you get two attempts total, but only one attempt per calendar day - you cannot retake it the same day you fail. Fail the second attempt and the course resets completely; you start over from lesson one and the 30-day clock restarts from that point. The lesson quizzes throughout the course have unlimited free retakes, so use those to actually learn the material before you hit the final. The alcohol and drug section and the driver attitude material together make up at least half the course content by state requirement, and those topics show up heavily in the exam questions. Take the quizzes seriously and you will not be surprised by the final.

Does completing the course remove points from my Ohio driving record?

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points or erase violations. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only a court can order points removed from an Ohio driving record. What the course does for eligible drivers - those with 2 to 11 points who are not court-ordered - is generate a 2-point credit that the BMV applies to the current point total. Think of it as a buffer, not a clean slate. A driver sitting at 9 points who earns the credit drops to 7, which means one more standard moving violation does not automatically trigger a 12-point suspension. The credit is valid for three years per current ODPS guidelines. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Ohio BMV after passing, and confirm the credit posted by checking your record through the Dayton BMV office or the Brookville Deputy Registrar.
