Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account, confirm you hold a valid Ohio license, and upload a government-issued photo ID. That verification step is required by the Ohio Department of Public Safety to confirm you are the person completing the course, not someone else doing it for you.

Work Through the Course Material

The lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Your progress saves automatically after every section, so you can log out and pick up later without losing ground inside the 30-day window.

Pass the Final and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass and have two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it, and you get your BMV Form 5789 certificate instantly. The total seat time is 8 hours minimum, with mandatory 10-minute breaks built in.

Your License Stays at Risk Until This Is Done

A suspended license stays suspended until the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course certificate hits the BMV or the court. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket without that cushion can push a record past 12 points and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The state also gives you exactly 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and you pay a reinstatement fee and start the course over from scratch.

Greene County Drivers Ask These Questions First

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

Ohio recognizes five situations where this course applies. Drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension, drivers under 21 reinstating after an alcohol-related suspension, drivers 19 or older clearing a juvenile suspension from before age 18, drivers ordered by a court, and drivers with 2 to 11 points who want to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them over the limit. Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 governs the point system and the suspension thresholds. The court-ordered path carries no 2-point credit. The voluntary credit path does. Greene County residents can confirm their specific situation with the Greene County Clerk of Courts in Xenia before enrolling.

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

The 2-point credit does not erase points already on your record. Only an Ohio court can remove points. What the credit does is apply a 2-point reduction to your current total, creating a cushion under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. A driver sitting at 10 points drops to 8 after the credit posts. That gap matters when the next ticket arrives. The credit is valid for three years, you can only use it once every three years, and the lifetime maximum is five times. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the credit posts after you submit BMV Form 5789 to the Greene County Deputy Registrar or the main Xenia BMV office on East Market Street.

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

The state does not extend the window. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets the 30-day completion requirement, and missing it means your enrollment expires. You pay a reinstatement fee and start the entire course over from lesson one. For drivers on a suspension, that also means the license stays suspended longer. The 30 days run from the date you enroll, not from the date you first log in to study. Greene County drivers who enrolled and then got busy with work or family obligations have come back to find the window closed. Set a target finish date before you start and treat the 30 days as a hard deadline, not a suggestion.

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

You get BMV Form 5789 as a digital PDF the moment the system scores your final exam as a pass. There is no waiting period and no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. Greene County residents can hand-deliver it to the Greene County Deputy Registrar or the Xenia BMV office on East Market Street, roughly two miles from the Greene County Courthouse. For a court-ordered case, submit it directly to the Greene County Clerk of Courts at 45 North Detroit Street in Xenia. Confirm the submission method your court specified in the order, because requirements vary by judge and case type under current Ohio BMV requirements.

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 attempt per calendar day, so you cannot retake it the same day you fail. Fail the second attempt and the course resets entirely. You start back at lesson one and work through all the material again before another final exam becomes available. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets the exam structure and the reset rule. The lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes and do not reset the course. Study those quiz questions seriously before you sit for the final, because the final pulls from the same material. Greene County drivers who treat the quizzes as practice tend to clear the final on the first attempt.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points from your record. Points already posted stay posted. Only an Ohio court has the authority to order point removal. What the course does, for drivers taking it voluntarily under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, is apply a 2-point credit to the current total. That credit reduces the number showing on your record by two points and creates a buffer before the next violation could push you into suspension territory. For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or completing a court order, the course satisfies the reinstatement or compliance requirement. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Greene County Deputy Registrar to get the credit posted to your record under current Ohio BMV requirements.
