Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID to confirm you are the licensed Ohio driver completing the course. This identity verification step is required by the Ohio Department of Public Safety before coursework begins. Delaware County residents can enroll from home and start the same day.

Complete the Course Lessons

Work through text and image-based interactive lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and traffic safety. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. A 10-minute break is required after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your 8-hour total. You have 30 days from enrollment to finish.

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 you get two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it and you immediately receive your BMV Form 5789 Certificate of Completion as a digital PDF. The course takes a minimum of 8 hours to complete per state requirements.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Gets Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing changes until the certificate lands at the BMV or the clerk's office. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on a record already sitting at 8 or 10 points can push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. 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 scratch.

Questions Delaware County Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five groups of licensed Ohio drivers are eligible under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Drivers with 2 to 11 points can take the course voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before a ticket pushes them into suspension territory. Drivers who hit 12 points within a two-year period face a mandatory suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and must complete the course to reinstate. Courts can also order the course as a condition of a case, in which case no point credit applies. Drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension and drivers 19 or older addressing a juvenile suspension round out the five groups. Delaware County residents in any of these situations can enroll through TrafficSchool.net today.

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

The 2-point credit creates a cushion on your record - it does not erase existing points or remove violations. Only an Ohio court can remove points from a driving record. What the credit does is reduce your active point total by two, which matters when you are sitting at 8 or 10 points and one more moving violation could push you past the 12-point suspension threshold under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and a maximum of five times in a lifetime. After completing the course, submit BMV Form 5789 to the Delaware County Deputy Registrar at 40 North Sandusky Street or directly to the Ohio BMV to apply the credit.

What happens if I do not finish the course within the 30-day window?

The state requires completion within 30 days of enrollment per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that window and the course resets. Before you can restart, you pay a reinstatement fee and begin the full course again from the beginning - your prior progress does not carry over. For drivers already dealing with a suspended license, that delay means more time off the road. The 30-day clock starts the day you enroll, not the day you first log in to study. Delaware County drivers who need to reinstate and get back on US-36 or SR-315 for work commutes cannot afford to let that window slip. Enroll only when you have a realistic plan to finish within the month.

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

You get the BMV Form 5789 Certificate of Completion as a digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam - no waiting, no processing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. Delaware County residents can do that at the Deputy Registrar office at 40 North Sandusky Street in Delaware, Ohio, or at the Morse Road BMV in Columbus, roughly 25 miles south on US-23. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate directly to the court that issued the order, typically the Delaware County Municipal Court or Common Pleas Court depending on the charge. Current Ohio BMV requirements do not allow the certificate to be submitted on behalf of the driver - you handle that step yourself.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions and you need a 75% to pass. You get two attempts total, but only one attempt per calendar day - you cannot retake it the same day you fail. Fail both attempts and the entire course resets under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. 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 do not count against you, so use those to make sure the material is solid before you sit for the final. Delaware County drivers on a tight reinstatement timeline should treat the final seriously the first time rather than banking on a second attempt.

Does completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course remove points from my record?

No. Completing the course does not remove points or wipe violations from your Ohio driving record. Only an Ohio court has the authority to remove points. What the course does for eligible drivers with 2 to 11 points is apply a 2-point credit under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 - that credit lowers your active point total by two and gives you a buffer before the next ticket could trigger a 12-point suspension. For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or completing a court order, the course satisfies the reinstatement or compliance requirement but the underlying violations remain on the record. Delaware County drivers who want to understand exactly what their record shows before enrolling can request an official driving record through the Ohio BMV or at the Deputy Registrar on North Sandusky Street.
