Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account on TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, a state approved Ohio driver training school. Upload a valid government-issued photo ID to confirm you are the person completing the course. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires identity verification before coursework begins.

Complete the Course Lessons

Work through text and image-based interactive lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and Ohio traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and must be passed to advance. Ohio requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your required hours.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass and get two attempts, one per calendar day. Finish the required 8 hours and pass the exam, and your BMV Form 5789 Certificate of Completion downloads instantly as a PDF.

Your License Status Does Not Wait

A 12-point suspension keeps your license suspended until this course is finished and the certificate is submitted to the BMV office serving Auglaize County. A court order stays open until the court gets that certificate. Even for a 2-point credit, every week without it is a week where one more ticket on US-33 near Cridersville can push your record past 12 points and trigger a suspension. Ohio also requires completion within 30 days of enrollment.

Questions Cridersville Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five categories of Ohio drivers qualify under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want a 2-point credit applied to their record. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for hitting 12 or more points in a two-year period under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Third, drivers ordered by a court to complete the remedial program. Fourth, drivers age 19 or older reinstating due to a juvenile suspension that happened before age 18. Fifth, drivers under 21 reinstating after an alcohol-related suspension. The court-ordered path does not produce a 2-point credit. Your next step is to confirm which category applies, then enroll through TrafficSchool.net.

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

The 2-point credit does not erase existing points or remove violations from your record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What the credit does is create a cushion. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, the credit reduces your active point total by two, which can keep you below the 12-point threshold that triggers a suspension. The credit is valid for three years, can only be used once every three years, and applies a maximum of five times in a lifetime. For a Cridersville driver sitting at 9 or 10 points, banking that credit before the next ticket on US-33 pushes the total over 12 is the practical reason to enroll now. Submit the completed BMV Form 5789 to the Auglaize County BMV office in Wapakoneta to apply the credit.

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

Ohio requires full completion of the Adult Remedial Driving Course within 30 days of enrollment, per current ODPS guidelines under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that window and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and start the entire course over from the beginning. Your prior progress does not carry forward. For drivers under a 12-point suspension or a court order, that delay also extends the time your license stays suspended or the court requirement stays open. Cridersville drivers who need to submit a certificate to the Auglaize County Clerk of Courts or the Wapakoneta BMV office cannot afford that restart. Log in consistently across the 30 days and pace yourself to finish well before the deadline.

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

The BMV Form 5789 Certificate of Completion generates as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. You do not wait for anything to be mailed. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. The nearest full-service BMV office for Cridersville residents is in Wapakoneta, roughly 10 minutes east on US-33, at the Auglaize County BMV location. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate directly to the court that issued the order, which for most Cridersville residents is the Auglaize County Clerk of Courts in Wapakoneta. Per current Ohio BMV requirements, the certificate must be submitted promptly after completion to activate the credit or satisfy the court requirement.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. Under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 and current ODPS guidelines, you get two attempts, but only one attempt per calendar day. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and you cannot try again until Tuesday. Pass on the second attempt and you get your certificate immediately. Fail both attempts and the course resets entirely. You start over from the first lesson, and the 30-day completion window restarts from that point. For Cridersville drivers already close to the 30-day deadline, a double failure and full reset creates a real problem. Go through the driver attitude and alcohol and drug sections carefully before attempting the exam. Do not rush 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 violations from your record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only an Ohio court has the authority to remove points. What the course produces is a 2-point credit, which is applied to your active point total and reduces it by two. The underlying violations and their associated points remain on your record. The credit is a buffer, not a clean slate. For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension, the course satisfies the reinstatement requirement but does not wipe the record that caused the suspension. Cridersville drivers who want to understand exactly what their record shows after the credit is applied can request a certified driving abstract through the Cridersville Deputy Registrar at 114 N. Main St.
