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 you start. Sunbury residents use the same state system as every other Ohio county, so this takes a few minutes at most.

Work Through the Course

Text and image-based lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and more. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Your progress saves automatically after every section, so you can log out and come back without losing ground.

Pass the Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided 40-question final exam requires a 75% to pass. You have two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it, and you get your BMV Form 5789 certificate instantly. The full course runs 8 hours minimum under Ohio state requirements.

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 clerk's office. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on a record already sitting at 8 or 10 points can push it past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The 30-day completion window starts at enrollment. Getting started now protects your driving privileges.

Questions Sunbury 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 a 2-point credit?

Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 recognize five situations where this course applies: accumulating 2 to 11 points and wanting a 2-point credit, reinstating after a 12-point suspension, completing a court order, reinstating after a juvenile suspension at age 19 or older, and reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension. The court-ordered situation is different because a judge mandates the course and no 2-point credit applies to that case. For every other situation, the course produces BMV Form 5789, which you submit to the Ohio BMV. Sunbury residents can submit that certificate at the Delaware County Deputy Registrar location in Delaware, Ohio, roughly 14 miles away.

What does the 2-point credit actually do for my Ohio driving record?

The 2-point credit does not remove existing points or erase violations from your record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What the credit does is subtract 2 from your current point total, creating a cushion before you hit the 12-point threshold that triggers a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. A driver sitting at 10 points drops to 8 after the credit posts. The credit stays active for three years, and you can use it once every three years, up to five times in a lifetime. After you pass the course, you submit BMV Form 5789 to the Ohio BMV, either at the Delaware County office or by mail, and the BMV applies the credit to your record.

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

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets a 30-day completion window from the date you enroll. Miss that window and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and start the entire course over from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry forward. For drivers reinstating a suspended license, that also means your license stays suspended longer. The practical move is to start the course and keep a steady pace rather than leaving it for the last week. Sunbury residents with a court deadline face the same rule, so check your court order from the Delaware County Clerk of Courts for any additional deadline the judge may have set alongside the state's 30-day window.

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

You get BMV Form 5789 as an instant digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. There is no waiting period and no mailing delay from the provider. For a 2-point credit or suspension reinstatement, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. The closest full-service BMV office for Sunbury residents is the Delaware County BMV on London Road in Delaware, Ohio, about 14 miles north on US-36. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate to the Delaware County Clerk of Courts at 91 North Sandusky Street in Delaware. Current Ohio BMV requirements under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 govern how the credit posts once the BMV receives the form.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You get two attempts, but only one attempt per calendar day, so the second try cannot happen until the following day. Fail both attempts and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 requires the course to reset completely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day window resets as well. The lesson quizzes throughout the course have unlimited free retakes, so use those to make sure the material sticks before you sit for the final. Drivers in Sunbury who are reinstating a suspended license or working against a court deadline from Delaware County need to treat the first attempt seriously rather than treating it as a practice run.

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

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 produces, for eligible drivers with 2 to 11 points, is a 2-point credit that reduces your active point total by two. That credit is a buffer, not a clean slate. A driver with three speeding tickets still has those convictions on record. The credit simply lowers the number the BMV counts toward the 12-point suspension threshold. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Ohio BMV after passing, and the credit posts to your record. The Delaware County BMV office in Delaware, Ohio handles in-person submissions for Sunbury residents.
