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 begin. This confirms you are the licensed Ohio driver completing the course, not someone doing it on your behalf. Takes a few minutes to set up.

Work Through the Course Material

The course uses text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Your progress saves automatically after each section, so you can log out and come back without losing ground. Ohio mandates 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 get your BMV Form 5789 certificate as an instant digital PDF. The course runs 8 hours minimum as required by Ohio law.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing changes on your record until the certificate lands at the BMV or the court. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket without that cushion can push your total past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Ohio also gives you a hard 30-day window from enrollment. Miss it and the state requires a reinstatement fee and a full restart from the beginning.

Approved for Hamilton County Drivers

Questions Indian Hill Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

Who actually has to take this course, and what is the difference between a court order and taking it for a 2-point credit?

Five situations qualify under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points 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 in a two-year period. Third, drivers ordered by a Hamilton County court or any Ohio court to complete the remedial program. Fourth, drivers 19 or older dealing with a juvenile suspension from before age 18. Fifth, drivers under 21 reinstating after an OVI or OVUAC alcohol-related suspension. Court-ordered drivers do not receive the 2-point credit. The credit only applies to voluntary enrollment. Confirm which category applies to your record before you enroll.

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

The 2-point credit does not erase existing points or remove violations from your Ohio driving record. Only an Ohio court can do that. What the credit does is apply a 2-point reduction to your current point total, creating a cushion before the next ticket could push you to 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The credit stays valid for three years from the date the BMV processes your certificate. You can use it once every three years, and Ohio caps lifetime use at five times total. After you pass the final exam, submit BMV Form 5789 to the Hamilton County BMV Deputy Registrar on Plainfield Road in Blue Ash, which serves Indian Hill residents, to get the credit applied.

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

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets a hard 30-day completion window from the date you enroll. Miss that deadline 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 with a suspended license, that also means your license stays suspended longer while you restart. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, the delay leaves your record exposed to the next ticket without that cushion. The practical move is to start the course within a day or two of enrolling and work through it steadily. Indian Hill residents can log in from home and complete sections across multiple sessions within the window without any daily hour cap.

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

Pass the 40-question final exam and you get BMV Form 5789 as an instant digital PDF certificate. There is no waiting period and no mailing delay. You can download and submit it the same day you finish. Where you send it depends on your situation. Drivers completing the course for a 2-point credit or a 12-point suspension reinstatement submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. The nearest full-service BMV Deputy Registrar for Indian Hill residents is in Blue Ash, roughly 10 minutes from the village center. Drivers completing the course under a court order submit the certificate directly to the Hamilton County Clerk of Courts at 1000 Main Street in Cincinnati, about 15 miles from Indian Hill. Confirm the submission address with your attorney or the court if you have a case number.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass. Ohio 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, and the 30-day completion window resets as well, per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. The lesson quizzes throughout the course have unlimited free retakes and you must pass each one to advance, so by the time you reach the final exam you have already worked through all the material. Take the quizzes seriously. They cover the same driver attitude and alcohol and drug content that shows up on the final. Do not rush through them.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points or erase violations from your record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only an Ohio court has the authority to remove points. What the course does for eligible drivers is apply a 2-point credit, which reduces your current point total by two points and creates a buffer before the next ticket could push you into suspension territory. The credit is valid for three years and can be used once every three years, up to five times in a lifetime. The violations themselves stay on your record. For Indian Hill drivers dealing with a court-ordered completion, no credit applies at all. The course satisfies the court requirement. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Hamilton County Clerk of Courts to close out the requirement.
