Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your ID

Create your account, upload a valid government-issued photo ID, and confirm your eligibility. Ohio requires identity verification before you begin. Ashland County residents taking the course for a court order or BMV reinstatement start here. The whole setup takes a few minutes.

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

Finish 8 hours of instruction, then take the 40-question state-provided final exam. You need a 75% to pass. Pass it, and BMV Form 5789 downloads immediately as a PDF. Submit it to the Ashland County Clerk of Courts or the Loudonville Deputy Registrar the same week.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing moves until the certificate lands at the BMV or the Ashland County Clerk of Courts. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket can push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The state also gives you exactly 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and you restart from zero and pay again. Get this handled now.

Questions Loudonville 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 on their record who want to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them over the limit. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for hitting 12 or more points within a two-year period under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Third, drivers who received a court order to complete the remedial program. Fourth, drivers 19 or older dealing with 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. For Loudonville residents, submit the finished certificate to the Ashland County Clerk of Courts or the Loudonville Deputy Registrar depending on your situation.

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

No. Only an Ohio court can remove points from your driving record. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course applies a 2-point credit under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, which acts as a cushion against future accumulation. If you currently have 8 points, the credit brings your effective total to 6 for suspension threshold purposes. It does not erase the underlying violations or wipe the record clean. The credit is valid for three years, can only be used once every three years, and has a lifetime cap of five uses per driver. For Loudonville drivers close to 12 points, banking this credit before the next ticket is the practical move. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Loudonville Deputy Registrar to apply it.

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

The state requires completion within 30 days of enrollment under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that window and the course resets entirely. You pay the enrollment fee again and start over from lesson one. None of your previous progress carries forward. For drivers on a suspension reinstatement, that also means your license stays suspended longer. For court-ordered cases, the open requirement stays on the books until a valid certificate reaches the Ashland County Clerk of Courts. The 30-day clock starts the day you enroll, not the day you first log in to study. Loudonville drivers should mark that date and pace sessions across the first two weeks to avoid a last-minute scramble.

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

BMV Form 5789 generates as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. You do not wait for anything to arrive by mail. Download it immediately and submit it the same day. For a 2-point credit, submit it to the Ohio BMV. Loudonville residents can bring it to the Loudonville Deputy Registrar on North Water Street or mail it directly to the BMV in Columbus. For a court-ordered case, submit it to the Ashland County Clerk of Courts, located in Ashland roughly 18 miles from Loudonville. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the certificate must be the official BMV Form 5789 issued by a state-approved provider. Certificates from unapproved sources are rejected.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions provided by the state. 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 entire course resets. You start over from lesson one and must complete the full instruction hours again before another exam attempt is available. The 30-day completion window does not pause during a reset. Loudonville drivers who hit a reset close to the deadline will likely need to re-enroll and pay again. Take the exam seriously the first time. Review the driver attitude and alcohol and drug sections before you sit for it, since those two areas cover at least half the curriculum.

Is there still an in-person classroom option near Loudonville, and is it worth it?

In-person classroom sessions for the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course do exist at approved providers in Ohio, but none operate inside Loudonville itself. Ashland County residents would need to drive to Mansfield or Ashland, roughly 18 to 25 miles each way, find a session that fits a fixed schedule, and then personally deliver the paper certificate to the BMV or Ashland County Clerk of Courts afterward. Under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, both formats satisfy the same state requirement and produce the same BMV Form 5789 certificate. The online course through TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, meets current Ohio BMV requirements and skips the travel entirely. For most Loudonville drivers, the online format is the practical choice given the distance involved.
