Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. This confirms you are the licensed Ohio driver completing the course, as required under current Ohio BMV requirements. Trumbull County residents enroll the same way as anyone else in the state. No paperwork to mail.

Work Through the Course Material

The lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug topics, and general traffic safety. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Your progress saves automatically after every section. Log out, come back later, pick up exactly where you left off. The state mandates a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The final exam is 40 state-provided multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass and you have two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it and you immediately download BMV Form 5789. The course requires 8 hours minimum of instruction time. Submit the certificate to the Trumbull County Clerk of Courts or the BMV, depending on your situation.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Gets Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing changes until the certificate lands at the BMV or courthouse. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on a record already sitting at 8 or 10 points can push it past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The state also gives you 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and you pay a reinstatement fee and start over from scratch.

Questions Leavittsburg 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 a ticket pushes them over the limit. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for hitting 12 or more points 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 earn a 2-point credit. Start by confirming which category applies to your Trumbull County record.

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

No. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not erase existing points or violations from your record. Only an Ohio court can remove points. What the course does is apply a 2-point credit under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, which acts as a cushion against future accumulation. A driver sitting at 8 points who earns the credit effectively has 6 points counted toward the 12-point suspension threshold. The credit is valid for three years, can only be used once every three years, and applies a maximum of five times in a lifetime. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Trumbull County BMV Deputy Registrar in Leavittsburg to apply the credit to your record.

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

The state closes your enrollment after 30 days. Per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, an expired enrollment requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and restart the course completely from the beginning. None of your previous progress carries over. For drivers under a court order or reinstating a suspended license, this also means your license stays suspended and your court requirement stays open longer. The practical move is to start the course within a day or two of enrolling and spread the required hours across the first two weeks. Leavittsburg drivers with a court date at the Trumbull County Courthouse in Warren need to account for that deadline when planning their schedule.

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

You get BMV Form 5789 as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. There is no waiting period and no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. Leavittsburg residents can use the Deputy Registrar office in Leavittsburg or the full-service BMV in Warren, roughly 10 miles east on State Route 422. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate directly to the Trumbull County Clerk of Courts, located at 120 High Street NW in Warren. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the certificate is accepted in digital form. Keep a copy for your own records regardless of which office you submit to.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

You get two attempts at the 40-question state-provided final exam, but only one attempt per calendar day. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and you cannot try again until Tuesday. Pass on the second attempt and you get your certificate immediately. Fail both attempts and the course resets entirely under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. You start over from the first lesson, and the 30-day completion window restarts from that point. The lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes, so use those to make sure the material sticks before you hit the final. Drivers in Leavittsburg who are working against a court deadline in Warren should build in buffer time before their hearing date.

Is an in-person classroom still an option, and is it worth it for someone in Leavittsburg?

In-person classroom options do exist in Trumbull County, typically in Warren. For most Leavittsburg drivers, the online course through TrafficSchool.net is the more practical choice. Warren is about 10 miles east, but classroom sessions run on fixed schedules that may require a full day away from work. The online Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course covers the same state-mandated curriculum under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, issues the same BMV Form 5789 certificate, and lets you complete the required hours across multiple sessions without committing to a single block of time. The certificate the BMV and Trumbull County courts accept is identical. The difference is entirely in how you spend your time getting there.
