Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires identity verification before coursework begins. Loveland residents in Clermont County use the same enrollment process as any Ohio driver, no separate registration required.

Complete the Course Lessons

Work through text and image-based interactive lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson. Progress saves automatically after every section, so you can log out and pick up exactly where you left off without losing anything.

Pass the Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided 40-question final exam requires a 75% to pass. You have 2 attempts, one per calendar day. Pass, and you immediately download your BMV Form 5789 certificate. The total course runs 8 hours minimum, with mandatory 10-minute breaks built in after every 2 hours.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or an under-21 alcohol offense, the clock is running. The BMV does not lift the suspension until the certificate hits their desk. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on Loveland-Miamiville Road or US-50 could push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension. The state also closes your enrollment after 30 days and requires a full restart.

Need a Different Ohio Driver Course?

The Adult Remedial Course covers points and suspensions. Other situations call for a different state-approved program.

Questions Loveland Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five groups qualify under current ODPS guidelines. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points on their Ohio 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 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 OVI or OVUAC alcohol-related suspension. Each situation uses the same course but produces a different outcome. Loveland residents should confirm their specific reason with the Clermont County Clerk of Courts or the Loveland Deputy Registrar before enrolling.

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

No. Only an Ohio court can remove points from your record. What the course does is apply a 2-point credit under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, which acts as a cushion against future accumulation. If you currently sit at 8 points, the credit brings your effective total down 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, you can use it once every three years, and Ohio caps lifetime use at five times. Court-ordered completions do not generate a 2-point credit at all. Loveland drivers who want to confirm their current point total can check with the Loveland Deputy Registrar on West Loveland Avenue before enrolling.

What happens if I do not finish within the 30-day enrollment window?

The state closes the enrollment after 30 days per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. At that point you owe a reinstatement fee and must restart the entire course from the beginning. None of your completed lessons carry over. For drivers reinstating a suspended license, the suspension stays active the entire time, so a missed deadline costs real driving days on top of the extra fees. The 30-day clock starts the moment you enroll, not the moment you first log in to study. Loveland drivers who are close to a court deadline should check with the Clermont County Clerk of Courts at 270 Main Street in Batavia, about 15 miles from Loveland, to confirm the court's own submission deadline before starting.

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

You get the BMV Form 5789 certificate as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. There is no waiting period and no manual processing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to any Ohio BMV location. The nearest full-service BMV Deputy Registrar serving Loveland residents is the Loveland Deputy Registrar on West Loveland Avenue in Clermont County. For a court-ordered case, submit directly to the court that issued the order, which for most Loveland residents means the Clermont County Clerk of Courts in Batavia, roughly 15 miles southeast on State Route 28. Per current Ohio BMV requirements, the certificate must reach the BMV or court before the credit or reinstatement takes effect.

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. Pass on the second attempt and you get the certificate immediately. Fail both attempts and the course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, the 30-day window resets, and you go through all the material again before another exam attempt. This is not a technicality buried in fine print. It happened to someone I know who rushed through the alcohol and drug section without reading carefully. Loveland drivers should treat the final like it matters, because a reset costs time your suspended license cannot afford.

What does the course actually cover during those 8 hours?

The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course runs a minimum of 8 hours of instruction. Per ODPS curriculum requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, at least 25 percent of the course covers driver attitude, including how attitude shapes risk decisions behind the wheel. Another 25 percent covers alcohol, drugs, and the operation of motor vehicles. The rest addresses traffic law, crash prevention, and related topics. A 10-minute break is required after every 2 consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your 8 hours. Lessons are text and image-based with quizzes between sections. There is no live video stream. You can study without a daily hour cap, so motivated Loveland drivers can push through multiple sections in a single sitting if the schedule allows.
