Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your ID

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires identity verification before you begin. Hamilton County residents served by the Greenhills Deputy Registrar on Winton Road can use the same ID they present there.

Work Through the Course

Complete text and image-based lessons with quizzes between sections. A 10-minute break is required after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total. Your progress saves automatically after each section, so you can log out and return without losing ground.

Pass the Exam 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. Finish 8 hours of instruction, pass the exam, and your BMV Form 5789 certificate downloads instantly as a PDF.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or an alcohol-related under-21 offense, the clock is running. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket can push a record past 12 and trigger a suspension that did not have to happen. The state also gives you 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and Ohio requires a reinstatement fee and a full restart. Get enrolled now and protect your driving privileges.

Questions Greenhills Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five groups of Ohio drivers take this course under current ODPS guidelines. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want to bank a 2-point credit before another ticket pushes them over the limit. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for hitting 12 or more points within two years under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Third, drivers ordered by a court to complete 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 generate a 2-point credit. Enroll at TrafficSchool.net and confirm your reason at registration.

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

No. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove existing points from your record. Only an Ohio court can order point removal. What the course does, under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, is apply a 2-point credit to your record. That credit acts as a cushion, effectively reducing the point total the BMV counts toward a suspension threshold. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and you can apply it a maximum of five times in your lifetime. Existing violations stay on your record. The credit just creates breathing room before the next ticket could push you over 12. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Hamilton County BMV to activate the credit.

What happens if I do not finish 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 start the entire course over from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry forward. For drivers whose license is already suspended, that means more time off the road. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, it means more exposure to a suspension if another ticket lands during the gap. The practical move is to start the first lesson the same day you enroll and keep a steady pace across the 30 days. Greenhills drivers can log in from any device to keep momentum going.

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

The moment you pass the final exam, the course generates BMV Form 5789 as an instant digital PDF. You download it immediately. No waiting for mail. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. Greenhills residents can visit the Greenhills Deputy Registrar on Winton Road or the Hamilton County BMV branch, roughly 10 to 15 minutes from Greenhills depending on traffic on Route 4. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate directly to the court that issued the order, typically the Hamilton County Municipal Court or whichever court handled your case. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the certificate is the official proof of completion the BMV and courts accept.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. Under 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 both attempts and the course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day completion window restarts from that point. Lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes and do not count against you. The final is the only high-stakes gate. Read through the driver attitude material and the alcohol and drug sections carefully before you attempt the exam. Those two topics make up at least half the curriculum by state requirement.

What does the course actually cover during those 8 hours?

Per Ohio Department of Public Safety requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, at least 25 percent of the course covers driver attitude and at least 25 percent covers alcohol, drugs, and the operation of motor vehicles. The rest addresses traffic law, crash prevention, and related topics. The course uses text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. There is no live video streaming. A 10-minute break is required after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward the state-mandated 8-hour minimum. When I went through it, the alcohol and drug section was more detailed than I expected. Greenhills drivers should plan for multiple sessions across the 30-day window to stay on pace.
