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 is a state requirement under current ODPS guidelines, not a formality. The whole process takes a few minutes before your first lesson unlocks.

Work Through the Eight-Hour Curriculum

The course covers driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and traffic law through text and image-based interactive 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 eight hours. No daily study cap exists, so you can push through in one sitting or spread it across multiple days within the 30-day window.

Pass the Final and Download 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, and you immediately download BMV Form 5789 as a PDF. The course takes a minimum of 8 hours to complete per state mandate.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or fulfilling a court order, nothing moves forward until the certificate lands at the BMV or courthouse. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, every week without it is a week where one more ticket on Route 40 through Hebron can push the record past 12 and trigger a suspension. The state also gives you exactly 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and you pay a reinstatement fee and start over from the beginning.

Travel to Class

Hebron has no local classroom option; expect a drive to Newark or beyond.

Paper Certificate Delay

Physical certificates can take days to arrive by mail after completion.

How Long This Actually Takes

The state mandates eight hours of instruction. Here is what that looks like depending on how you take the course.

Method
Estimated Time to Certificate
Online Course Start the same day you enroll, finish in one sitting or spread across multiple days within your 30-day window, no waiting for a class date.
In-Person Classroom Wait for the next available class date near Newark or Columbus, then block out a full day including drive time to and from the location.

What You Actually Pay

The online course costs less than a classroom and saves you gas money on top of the tuition difference.

Method
Realistic Total Cost
Online Course Flat rate of $76.00 total, certificate included, no classroom fees, no fuel cost for the drive out of Hebron.
In-Person Classroom Classroom tuition typically runs higher than $76.00, plus fuel for the round trip to Newark or a Columbus-area provider.

Finish the Course From Any Device

The course runs on phones, tablets, and laptops without any app download. Licking County has spotty coverage in spots outside of Hebron proper, so the auto-save feature matters. Every completed section saves to the server the moment you finish it, so a dropped connection does not cost you progress.

  • Any Device

    Phone, tablet, or laptop all work. No app download or special software required to access the course.

  • Auto-Saved

    Progress saves server-side after each section so a lost connection never wipes out completed work.

  • 30-Day Reminders

    The system tracks your enrollment date so you stay aware of the state-mandated 30-day completion window.

Questions Hebron Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five groups of licensed Ohio drivers qualify 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 with a court order requiring the remedial program. Fourth, drivers 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 point credit. For Licking County residents, the Hebron Deputy Registrar on Canal Street handles many of these reinstatement transactions locally.

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. If you are sitting at 8 points and you earn the 2-point credit, a new 2-point ticket puts you at 8 rather than 10, keeping you further from the 12-point suspension threshold. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and the lifetime maximum is five times. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Newark BMV on West Main Street, roughly 10 miles from Hebron, to apply the credit.

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

The state requires a full restart. Under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, the 30-day completion window is a hard deadline. Miss it and your progress does not carry forward. You pay the enrollment fee again and begin the course from lesson one. For drivers under a court order, an expired enrollment can also create a compliance problem with the court, since the requirement stays open until a valid certificate gets submitted. For suspension reinstatement cases, your license stays suspended the entire time. The practical move is to start the first lesson the day you enroll and keep a note of your deadline. The Licking County Clerk of Courts in Newark can confirm your court deadline if you have a court-ordered case.

How fast do I get my certificate after passing the final exam?

The certificate downloads immediately. The moment you pass the final exam, BMV Form 5789 generates as a PDF and you can save or print it right then. No waiting for mail, no processing delay. For a 2-point credit, take the certificate to the Newark BMV branch on West Main Street, about 10 miles from Hebron, or mail it per current Ohio BMV requirements. For a court-ordered case, deliver or submit it to the Licking County Clerk of Courts in Newark. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires the certificate to come from a state-approved provider, which TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, is. Keep a copy of the PDF for your own records after you submit the original.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

You get two attempts total, one per calendar day. Fail the first attempt and you can retake it the following calendar day. Fail the second attempt and the course resets completely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day window restarts from that point. The final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions provided by the state, and the passing score is 75%. Lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes and do not count against you, so use those to lock in the material before you hit the final. Under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, the exam must be passed to generate a valid certificate. Treat the first attempt seriously. Licking County drivers who reset the course still have to finish within a new 30-day window.

What does the course actually cover during those eight hours?

The Ohio Department of Public Safety mandates the curriculum split. At least 25 percent of the course covers driver attitude, which means the mindset and decision-making patterns behind crashes, not just traffic laws. At least another 25 percent covers alcohol, drugs, and the operation of motor vehicles. The rest covers Ohio traffic law, hazard recognition, and related material. The format is text and image-based interactive 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 the eight-hour minimum. There is no daily study cap, so you can complete the full 8 hours in one session if your schedule allows. The alcohol and drug section was the part that stuck with me the longest after I took it.
