Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account, confirm eligibility, and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio requires identity verification before you access any course material. Monroe County residents use the same enrollment process as any Ohio driver, no in-person visit required to get started.

Work Through the Course Material

Complete text and image-based interactive lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and Ohio traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your required hours.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass and you have two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it, and you immediately download your BMV Form 5789 certificate. The course runs 8 hours minimum as required by Ohio law.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For Monroe County drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or an under-21 alcohol offense, the clock is already running. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket could push the record past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The state also gives you exactly 30 days from enrollment to finish. Start now, get the certificate this week, and get your record sorted out.

Questions Monroe County 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 taking it for a point credit?

Five groups qualify under current ODPS guidelines. Drivers with 2 to 11 points can take it voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them over the limit. Drivers who hit 12 points within two years face a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and must complete the course to reinstate. Courts can also order it directly, in which case no point credit applies. Drivers 19 or older reinstating a juvenile suspension and drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol offense round out the list. Monroe County residents in any of these situations use the same enrollment process through TrafficSchool.net.

The 2-point credit sounds useful, but what does it actually do to my driving record?

The credit does not remove existing points or erase any violation from your record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What the 2-point credit does under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 is create a cushion. If your record sits at 10 points and you complete the course, the BMV applies a 2-point credit, bringing the effective count to 8. That gives you room before the next ticket triggers a 12-point suspension. The credit is valid for three years, you can only use it once every three years, and the lifetime maximum is five times. Submit your BMV Form 5789 to the Monroe County Deputy Registrar or directly to the BMV to apply it.

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 window and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and restart the entire course from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry over. For Monroe County drivers already dealing with a suspended license, that delay extends the time you are off the road. The practical move is to start the course and work through it steadily rather than waiting until the last week. The system saves your progress after every section, so you can log in across multiple days without losing ground.

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

You get the certificate immediately. The moment you pass the final exam, the system generates your BMV Form 5789 as a digital PDF and you download it right then. No waiting for mail. For a 2-point credit, submit it to the Ohio BMV or bring it to the Monroe County Deputy Registrar located in Woodsfield. For a court-ordered case, submit it directly to the court that issued the order, which for most Monroe County residents is the Monroe County Court of Common Pleas or the relevant municipal court. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the BMV Form 5789 is the only accepted certificate format, and TrafficSchool.net issues it in full compliance.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions and you need a 75% to pass. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 allows 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 course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, the 30-day window resets, and you go through all the material again before reaching the exam. Lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes, so use those to make sure the material is solid before you sit for the final. Monroe County drivers close to the 30-day deadline should not wait to attempt the exam.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points or wipe violations from your record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only a court order can remove points. What the course does is apply a 2-point credit to your record when you submit BMV Form 5789 to the BMV. That credit offsets your current point total by two, giving you a buffer before the next ticket could trigger a suspension. The violations themselves stay on your record. For Monroe County drivers who want to pursue actual point removal, that requires going back to the court that issued the underlying conviction. The course handles the credit side; the court handles any removal.
