Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account, confirm you hold a valid Ohio license, and upload a government-issued photo ID. Identity verification is required by the state before you can begin any coursework. Tuscarawas County residents use the same enrollment process as every other Ohio county - no extra steps.

Work Through the Course Material

The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course covers driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and traffic safety through text and image-based interactive lessons. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. State rules require a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions and you need a 75% to pass. You get two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it, and your BMV Form 5789 certificate generates instantly as a PDF. The entire course takes a minimum of 8 hours to complete per state mandate.

Your License Stays at Risk Until This Is Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing changes until you finish and submit that certificate. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, every day you wait is another day a new ticket could push your total past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The state also gives you a 30-day window from enrollment to finish. Miss it and you pay a reinstatement fee and start completely over.

Questions Sugarcreek Police Dept 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 2-point credit?

Five groups of Ohio drivers are eligible under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Drivers with 2 to 11 points can take the course voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before a suspension hits. Drivers who hit 12 points and had their license suspended must complete it before reinstatement. Courts can order it as a condition of a case, and in that situation no 2-point credit applies - the certificate goes to the court, not just the BMV. Drivers 19 or older reinstating a juvenile suspension and drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension also qualify. If you are a Tuscarawas County resident unsure which category fits, check with the Tuscarawas County Clerk of Courts at 101 East High Avenue, New Philadelphia before enrolling.

What does the 2-point credit actually do for my Ohio driving record, and how often can I use it?

The 2-point credit does not erase existing points or remove violations from your record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What it does is apply a 2-point reduction to your current point total, creating a cushion so the next ticket does not push you over 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The credit is valid for three years from the date the BMV processes your certificate. You can use it once every three years, up to five times in your lifetime. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Ohio BMV after passing. The nearest BMV Deputy Registrar serving Sugarcreek is located in Tuscarawas County - the New Philadelphia BMV is roughly 10 miles from Sugarcreek on State Route 39.

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

Per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, the state requires a reinstatement fee and a full course restart if you miss the 30-day completion window. Your previous progress does not carry over. You pay again and start from lesson one. For drivers already dealing with a suspended license or an open court requirement, that delay extends the time your license stays inactive. The 30-day clock starts on your enrollment date, not the date you first log in to study. Sugarcreek residents who enrolled and then got busy with work on State Route 93 or elsewhere have lost their progress this way. Treat the 30-day window as a hard deadline and pace yourself from day one to avoid that outcome.

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

Your BMV Form 5789 Certificate of Completion generates as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam - no waiting, no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit it directly to the Ohio BMV. The nearest BMV office serving Sugarcreek Police Dept residents is in New Philadelphia, Tuscarawas County, approximately 10 miles west on State Route 39. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate to the Tuscarawas County Clerk of Courts at 101 East High Avenue, New Philadelphia, OH 44663. Current Ohio BMV requirements under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 require the BMV to process the credit after receiving the valid certificate. Keep a digital copy for your own records regardless of where you submit.

What happens if I fail the final exam on the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. Per 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 your certificate normally. Fail both attempts and the course resets entirely - you start over from lesson one and the 30-day window resets from that point. This is not a technicality to ignore. Sugarcreek drivers who rushed through the alcohol and drug sections without reviewing them have hit this wall. Read the material, take the lesson quizzes seriously, and go into the final exam having actually worked through the driver attitude content. The quizzes have unlimited free retakes for a reason - use them.

Does finishing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course remove points from my driving record?

No. Completing the course does not remove points or wipe violations from your Ohio driving record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only a court order can remove points. What the course does for eligible drivers is apply a 2-point credit to your current point total, reducing the number that counts toward the 12-point suspension threshold. Think of it as a buffer, not a clean slate. If you have 9 points and complete the course, the BMV applies the credit and your effective total drops to 7. A new violation still adds its full point value on top of whatever remains. For Tuscarawas County drivers who want to know their exact current point total before enrolling, request a certified driving record from the New Philadelphia BMV or through the Ohio BMV online portal.
