Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your ID

Create your account at TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, a state approved Ohio driver training school. Upload a valid government-issued photo ID to confirm your identity before the course begins. This is a current Ohio BMV requirement, not optional.

Work Through the Course

The course uses text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Your progress saves automatically after each section. Log out, come back later, and pick up exactly where you stopped. No live video sessions, no fixed schedule to work around.

Pass the Exam and Get Your Certificate

After 8 hours of instruction, you take a 40-question state-provided final exam. Score 75% or better and you get your BMV Form 5789 certificate instantly as a digital PDF. Submit it to the Highland County Clerk of Courts or the BMV, depending on your situation.

Your License Stays in Limbo Until This Is Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing moves until the certificate lands at the BMV or the courthouse. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, the clock matters too. One more ticket on a record already sitting at 8 or 10 points can trigger a 12-point suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The state also gives you 30 days from enrollment to finish. Start now and get the record sorted out.

Questions Greenfield 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 a 2-point credit?

Five groups qualify under current Ohio BMV requirements. Drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, drivers with a court order to complete a remedial program, drivers reinstating after an under-21 OVI or OVUAC suspension, drivers 19 or older addressing a juvenile suspension from before age 18, and drivers with 2 to 11 points who want to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket. The court-ordered group gets no 2-point credit applied to their record. The other groups may qualify for the credit. If the Highland County Municipal Court ordered you to take this course, the certificate goes to the court, not the BMV. Start by confirming which category applies to your situation.

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 remove points. What the credit does is subtract two points from your current total, creating a cushion before you hit the 12-point threshold that triggers a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. If you are sitting at 8 points and you earn the credit, your effective total drops to 6. One more ticket that adds 4 points puts you at 10, not 12. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and the lifetime maximum is five times per driver. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the BMV after passing to apply it.

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

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets the 30-day completion window from the date you enroll. Miss that deadline and the state requires you to pay the reinstatement fee and start the entire course over from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry forward. For drivers in a suspension or court-ordered situation, that also means your license stays suspended and the court requirement stays open longer. Greenfield drivers who work irregular hours or have family obligations should map out the sessions before enrolling to make sure the 30 days is realistic. The course saves your progress automatically, so you can split the hours across multiple days as long as you finish within the window.

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 you pass the final exam. There is no waiting period, no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit or a 12-point suspension reinstatement, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. The nearest full-service BMV office serving Greenfield residents is in Hillsboro, the Highland County seat, roughly 15 miles east on US-50. The Greenfield Deputy Registrar on Jefferson Street handles some transactions but may not process all reinstatement paperwork, so call ahead. For court-ordered cases, submit the certificate directly to the Highland County Municipal Court. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the BMV processes the credit after it receives the completed Form 5789.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions provided by the state. Under current Ohio BMV requirements, you get two attempts total, but only one attempt per calendar day. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and you cannot try again until Tuesday. Fail both attempts and the course resets completely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day window under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 restarts from that point. The lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes, so use those to actually learn the material before you sit the final. The driver attitude section and the alcohol and drug content make up at least half the exam questions, so pay attention to those two sections specifically.

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

No. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course applies a 2-point credit to your record, which reduces your active point total by two. It does not delete the underlying violations or citations that put the points there. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only an Ohio court has authority to actually remove points from a driving record. The credit is a buffer, not a clean slate. If you have 10 points and earn the credit, your total becomes 8, but the tickets that generated those 10 points still appear on your record. For Highland County drivers dealing with insurance rate reviews or employer background checks, the violations themselves remain visible. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Hillsboro BMV office to apply the credit after you pass.
