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 start. Perry Heights residents use the same enrollment process as any Ohio driver. Takes about five minutes to get through the front door and into the first lesson.

Complete the Course Lessons

Work through text and image-based interactive lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and Ohio traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Ohio law requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total 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 have two attempts, one per calendar day. Finish 8 hours of instruction, pass the exam, and your BMV Form 5789 certificate downloads instantly as a PDF ready to submit.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For Perry Heights drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or a court order, nothing moves until the certificate hits the BMV or the clerk's desk. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, every week without it is a week where one more ticket on US-30 or Fulton Road pushes the record past 12 and triggers a suspension. Ohio also gives you 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and the state requires a full restart plus a reinstatement fee.

Frequently Asked Questions from Perry Heights Drivers

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

Five groups of Ohio drivers qualify under current ODPS guidelines. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want 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 ordered by a court to complete 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 alcohol-related OVI or OVUAC suspension. Court-ordered completions do not earn a 2-point credit. Perry Heights residents can enroll through TrafficSchool.net for any of these five reasons.

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

No. Only an Ohio court can remove points from your record. What the course does under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 is apply a 2-point credit, which acts as a cushion against your current point total. If you have 8 points and earn the credit, the BMV treats your record as if it carries 6 points for purposes of the suspension threshold. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and a maximum of five times in a lifetime. The underlying violations and their original points stay on your record. For Perry Heights drivers watching their total climb, banking this credit before a ticket on Fulton Road or Whipple Avenue tips the count past 12 is the practical move. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Stark County BMV to apply it.

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

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets a hard 30-day completion window from your enrollment date. Miss it and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and start the entire course over from the beginning. None of your completed lessons carry forward. For Perry Heights drivers under a court order or reinstating a suspended license, that also means your license stays suspended longer and your court requirement stays open. The 30-day clock is not a soft guideline. Progress saves automatically after every section, so there is no technical reason to lose ground. Log in consistently across the first few weeks and you will not be scrambling at day 28. Enroll only when you are ready to commit to finishing.

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

The certificate generates instantly as a digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. That is BMV Form 5789, the official document Ohio requires. You do not wait for anything to arrive in the mail. For a 2-point credit, submit it to the Ohio BMV. Perry Heights residents can handle that at the Stark County Deputy Registrar or drive roughly 4 miles to the Stark County BMV office. For a court-ordered case, submit it directly to the court that issued the order, which for most Perry Heights residents is the Stark County Court of Common Pleas or the relevant municipal court. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the certificate must be submitted promptly to satisfy either the BMV or court requirement.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. Under current Ohio BMV requirements, you get two attempts total, and only one attempt is allowed per calendar day. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and you cannot try again until Tuesday. Fail the second attempt and the entire course resets. You start over from lesson one, the 30-day window resets, and you pay again if required by the provider. This is not a technicality buried in fine print. It is the rule under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Perry Heights drivers who take the lesson quizzes seriously and do not rush through the alcohol and drug sections tend to pass without hitting the second attempt. Treat the quizzes as practice for the final, not just checkboxes to click through.

What does the course actually cover during those 8 hours?

The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course runs a minimum of 8 hours of instruction, with no cap on total time. Per ODPS curriculum requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, at least 25 percent of the course covers driver attitude and at least 25 percent covers alcohol, drugs, and the operation of motor vehicles. The rest covers Ohio traffic law, crash prevention, and related material. Ohio law requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your 8 hours. The driver attitude section was the part that actually made me think when I took it. It is not just rules and definitions. There is no daily study cap, so you can work through multiple sections in one sitting if the schedule allows. Enroll at TrafficSchool.net to start.
