Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio requires identity verification before you begin. This confirms you are the licensed Ohio driver completing the course, not someone else doing it for you. Takes a few minutes to set up.

Work Through the Course Material

Text and image-based lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and Ohio 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 back up without losing ground.

Pass the Final and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass. Complete the required 8 hours of instruction first. Pass the final and your BMV Form 5789 certificate generates instantly as a PDF. Submit it to the Franklin County BMV or your court the same day.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or a court order, nothing moves until the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course is complete and the certificate is submitted. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket could push your record past 12 points and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The 30-day completion window from enrollment is a hard state deadline. Start now and get this behind you.

Questions Lincoln Village 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 the 2-point credit?

Five groups qualify under current ODPS guidelines. Drivers with 2 to 11 points can take the course voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them toward a suspension. Drivers who hit 12 points within two years face a mandatory suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and must complete the course before reinstatement. Courts can also order the course directly, in which case no 2-point credit applies. Drivers 19 or older with a juvenile suspension and drivers under 21 reinstating after an alcohol-related suspension also qualify. If you are in Franklin County and unsure which category applies to you, the Lincoln Village Deputy Registrar on Broad Street can confirm your current point total.

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

The 2-point credit does not erase existing points or remove violations from your record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What the credit does is apply a 2-point reduction to your current point total under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, giving you a cushion before the next ticket could push you to 12 and trigger a suspension. The credit is valid for three years from the date it is applied, and you can use it once every three years, up to five times in a lifetime. So if you are sitting at 8 points right now, the credit brings you to 6. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Franklin County BMV office on Morse Road after passing, and the BMV applies the credit to your record.

What happens if I do not finish the course 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 prior progress does not carry over. For drivers already in a suspended status, that means your license stays suspended longer and you pay more to get back on the road. For 2-point credit drivers, the window closing means you lose the credit opportunity and have to re-enroll and pay again. The Franklin County BMV on Morse Road, roughly 15 minutes from Lincoln Village, processes reinstatements and will confirm the restart requirement if you call ahead.

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

The certificate generates as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. That is BMV Form 5789, the official document the Ohio BMV and Ohio courts require. For a 2-point credit, submit it to the Franklin County BMV, located on Morse Road approximately 15 minutes from Lincoln Village. For a court-ordered case, submit it directly to the court that issued the order, which for most Lincoln Village residents is the Franklin County Municipal Court or the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas depending on the charge. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the BMV processes the credit after receiving the form. Keep a copy of the PDF for your own records before submitting.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You get two attempts total, but only one attempt per calendar day, per current Ohio BMV requirements. 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. You start over from lesson one, which also resets your 30-day completion window. This is not a situation you want to land in if your license is already suspended. Work through the lesson quizzes seriously before you sit for the final. The quizzes have unlimited free retakes and cover the same material the final tests you on.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points or erase violations from your record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only an Ohio court has the authority to remove points. What the course does for eligible drivers is apply a 2-point credit, which reduces your current point total by two points and creates a buffer before the next ticket could trigger a suspension. The violations that generated those points stay on your record. For drivers completing the course under a court order or for reinstatement after a 12-point suspension, the course satisfies the ODPS requirement to restore driving privileges. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Franklin County BMV on Morse Road to get the process finalized.
