Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio requires identity verification before you begin. The Day Heights Deputy Registrar on SR 28 handles in-person BMV transactions, but enrollment here happens entirely through your browser, any time of day.

Work Through the Course Lessons

Text and image-based lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and related Ohio traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. A 10-minute break is required after every two consecutive hours, and that break time does not count toward your total course hours.

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 your BMV Form 5789 certificate generates instantly. The course takes a minimum of 8 hours to complete per state mandate.

Your License Stays on Hold Until This Is Done

A 12-point suspension through the Clermont County BMV does not lift on its own. A court order stays open. And if you are sitting at 8 or 9 points, one more ticket on US-32 or SR-125 can push you into suspension territory fast. The state also gives you a 30-day window from enrollment to finish. Miss it and you pay a reinstatement fee and start over from the beginning.

TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, is a state-approved Ohio driver training school. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course meets current Ohio BMV requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 and Ohio Revised Code 4510.037.

Travel Required

Clermont County classroom options may require a drive to Batavia or beyond.

Paper certificates take days to process. That slows down your BMV or court submission.

How Long Each Option Actually Takes

The 8-hour state minimum applies to both formats. The difference is who controls the schedule.

Method

In-Person Classroom Wait for an available session date, drive to the location, and sit through a fixed all-day or multi-day schedule.

What You Actually Pay

Online costs less and gets you the certificate faster. Here is how the two options compare for Clermont County drivers.

Method
Realistic Total Cost
Online Course Pay $76.00 flat. That covers everything: lessons, quizzes, final exam, and your instant PDF certificate.

Questions Day Heights 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 taking it for a 2-point credit?

Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 define five situations where this course applies: accumulating 12 or more points and needing reinstatement, wanting a 2-point credit while sitting between 2 and 11 points, a court order requiring the program, a juvenile suspension for drivers now 19 or older, or an under-21 alcohol-related suspension. The court-ordered situation is different in one key way: no 2-point credit applies when a court mandates the course. The credit only applies when you voluntarily enroll to create a cushion. Clermont County drivers in either situation submit BMV Form 5789 to the appropriate office after passing.

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

The 2-point credit does not remove existing points or erase violations from your record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What the credit does is subtract two points from your current total, giving you a cushion before the next ticket pushes you toward a 12-point suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The credit is valid for three years from the date the BMV processes your certificate. You can use it once every three years and up to five times in your lifetime. If you are sitting at 9 points and driving SR-125 regularly, that two-point buffer is real protection. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Clermont County BMV branch after you pass.

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

The Ohio Department of Public Safety requires completion within 30 days of enrollment under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that window and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and restart the course entirely from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry over. For Clermont County drivers on a court timeline or trying to reinstate a suspended license, that delay also means your license stays suspended longer. The nearest full-service BMV branch serving Day Heights is in Milford, roughly 10 miles away. Do not let the 30-day clock run out. Log in, track your progress, and finish before the deadline.

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. You do not wait for anything to be mailed. Download it immediately and submit it the same day. For a 2-point credit, take or send the certificate to the Clermont County BMV branch in Milford, approximately 10 miles from Day Heights. For a court-ordered case, submit it directly to the Clermont County Clerk of Courts in Batavia. Current Ohio BMV requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 specify that the certificate must come from a state-approved provider. TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, is a state-approved Ohio driver training school, so the certificate is accepted.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You get two attempts, but only one per calendar day, per current ODPS guidelines under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and you cannot try again until Tuesday. Fail the second attempt and the course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day completion window restarts from that point. The lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes and are there specifically to prepare you for the final. Take them seriously. Clermont County drivers who have already waited weeks to get their license back cannot afford to lose more time to a course reset.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points or wipe violations from your record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only a court has the authority to remove points. What the course does for eligible drivers is apply a 2-point credit to your current total, reducing the number of active points the BMV counts toward a suspension threshold. That credit is valid for three years. Existing violations stay on your record as required by Ohio law. If you are taking the course under a court order, no credit applies at all. The certificate satisfies the court requirement. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Clermont County Clerk of Courts in Batavia to close out a court-ordered case.
