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. Tuscarawas County residents use the same enrollment process as any Ohio driver. Your 30-day completion window starts the moment enrollment is confirmed, so do not sit on it.

Work Through the 8-Hour Course

The course covers driver attitude, alcohol and drug sections, and general traffic safety through text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Ohio mandates a 10-minute break after every 2 consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your 8 hours. Your progress saves automatically after each section.

Pass the Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass and get two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass, and you immediately download BMV Form 5789. The course takes a minimum of 8 hours to complete per state requirements.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For Tuscarawas drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or fulfilling 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 that cushion is a week where one more ticket on State Route 39 or US-36 can push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension. Ohio also gives you exactly 30 days from enrollment to finish. Start now and close this out.

How Long Does This Actually Take?

Method
Estimated Time to Certificate

Method
Realistic Total Cost

Questions Tuscarawas 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 the 2-point credit?

Five groups qualify under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Drivers with 2 to 11 points can take it voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before hitting 12. Drivers who already hit 12 points within two years take it to reinstate a suspended license under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Courts can also order it directly, in which case no 2-point credit applies. Drivers 19 or older reinstating after a juvenile suspension and drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension also qualify. The reason you enroll determines what you do with the certificate afterward. Tuscarawas County drivers submit the certificate either to the Tuscarawas Deputy Registrar for BMV cases or to the Tuscarawas County Clerk of Courts for court-ordered cases.

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 apply a 2-point reduction to your current point total, creating a cushion between where you stand now and the 12-point threshold that triggers a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The credit is valid for three years, you can only use it once every three years, and Ohio caps lifetime use at five times. For a Tuscarawas driver sitting at 8 or 10 points, that cushion can be the difference between keeping your license and losing it after the next ticket on a county road. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Tuscarawas Deputy Registrar to apply the credit.

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

Ohio requires completion within 30 days of enrollment per ODPS guidelines. 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 Tuscarawas drivers with a suspension already open, that also means more time without a valid license. The 30-day clock starts the moment you enroll, not the first time you log in to study. The practical move is to start the first session the same day you enroll and work through sections consistently. The Tuscarawas Deputy Registrar cannot process your reinstatement until a valid, in-window certificate reaches the BMV.

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

You get the certificate immediately. The moment you pass the final exam, BMV Form 5789 generates as a downloadable PDF. There is no waiting period and no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit or 12-point suspension reinstatement, submit it to the Ohio BMV. Tuscarawas County drivers can bring it to the Tuscarawas Deputy Registrar located in New Philadelphia, or submit it directly to the Ohio BMV. For a court-ordered case, deliver it to the Tuscarawas County Clerk of Courts. The Clerk of Courts office is in the Tuscarawas County Courthouse in New Philadelphia, roughly the same stop as the Deputy Registrar. Per current Ohio BMV requirements, the certificate must be the official BMV Form 5789 issued by a state-approved provider.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

You get two attempts at the final exam, but only one attempt per calendar day, per ODPS course requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Fail the first attempt and you come back the next calendar day for the second try. Fail the second attempt and the course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day completion window resets as well. The final exam is 40 state-provided multiple-choice questions. A 75% is required to pass. The lesson quizzes throughout the course have unlimited free retakes, so use those to make sure the material is solid before you sit for the final. Tuscarawas drivers who reset the course should re-enroll promptly to protect their remaining time.

Is there still an in-person classroom option near Tuscarawas, and is it worth the trip?

In-person classroom sessions for the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course do exist in Ohio, but none operate inside Tuscarawas County itself. The nearest options require driving to Canton, Akron, or Columbus, which adds significant travel time and cost on top of the 8-hour course requirement. The Ohio BMV accepts certificates from both formats equally under current Ohio BMV requirements, so the outcome is identical. The online course through TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, runs in any browser, saves progress automatically after each section, and lets you work around a job or family schedule. For most Tuscarawas County drivers, the math on time and fuel alone makes the online format the practical choice. The certificate you get is the same BMV Form 5789 either way.
