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 start. This confirms you are the licensed driver completing the course, not someone else sitting in for you. Englewood residents use the same enrollment process as any Ohio driver statewide.

Work Through the Course Material

The course uses text and image-based interactive lessons with a quiz after each section. You must pass each quiz to advance, with unlimited free retakes. Ohio law requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total. Progress saves automatically after each section, so you can log out and come back without losing your place.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam has 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass, and you get two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it, and you get your BMV Form 5789 certificate as an instant digital PDF. The total course runs 8 hours minimum. Submit the certificate to the Englewood Deputy Registrar, the Montgomery County BMV, or your court.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing changes until the certificate lands with the BMV or the court. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on a record already sitting at 8 or 9 points can push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension. Ohio also gives you a hard 30-day window from enrollment. Miss it and you pay a reinstatement fee and start the course over from scratch. Getting this finished now protects your driving privileges.

Questions Englewood Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

Who actually has to take the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course?

Five groups qualify under current Ohio BMV requirements. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want a 2-point credit applied to their record before the next ticket causes a problem. 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 with a court order requiring 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 OVI or OVUAC suspension. Court-ordered completions do not earn a 2-point credit. Start by confirming which category applies to your Montgomery County record.

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 it does is reduce your active point total by two, which creates a cushion before you hit the 12-point threshold that triggers a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. A driver sitting at 9 points drops to 7 after the credit posts. The credit stays valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and Ohio caps lifetime use at five times. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Englewood Deputy Registrar or the Montgomery County BMV on North Springboro Pike in Dayton to get the credit applied.

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. None of your previous progress carries over. For drivers with a suspended license, that also means more time off the road while you work through the course a second time. The 30-day clock does not pause. Log your enrollment date somewhere visible and treat it as a real deadline. Englewood residents can submit the completed certificate to the Montgomery County BMV on North Springboro Pike in Dayton, roughly 10 miles south of Englewood, the same week they finish.

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

Pass the final exam and BMV Form 5789 generates as an instant digital PDF. There is no waiting period, no processing queue, and no mailing delay. Download it immediately and submit it the same day. For a 2-point credit, take or send it to the Englewood Deputy Registrar on Union Boulevard or the Montgomery County BMV on North Springboro Pike in Dayton, about 10 miles from Englewood. For a court-ordered case, submit it directly to the Montgomery County Clerk of Courts at 41 North Perry Street in Dayton. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the BMV posts the credit to your record after it receives and processes the certificate.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam has 40 multiple-choice questions. Under current Ohio BMV requirements tied to Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, 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. Fail the second attempt and the entire course resets. You start over from the beginning, which also means the 30-day completion window becomes a real concern. Lesson quizzes between sections work differently. Those have unlimited free retakes and you must pass each one to advance. The final exam is the only part with a two-attempt limit. Study the driver attitude and alcohol and drug sections carefully before you sit for it.

Does finishing 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, which lowers your active point total by two and gives you a buffer before the next ticket could push you into suspension territory. Drivers completing the course under a court order or for a suspension reinstatement are not earning a 2-point credit at all. Their goal is satisfying the requirement so the BMV or court closes out the case. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the appropriate office and confirm the credit or reinstatement posts to your Montgomery County record.
